I want the Cherokee Rose the most, but my next kuk may be an AK in the 15-17" range.

I'm down to just my 21" Chit, and my old faithful 16.5" WW II, but those meet most of my needs.

what I really want (but cant afford) is a YCS or that vented spine khuk that was posted a couple of days ago.
other than that:
19" malla
PK
ciruwa AK
10" bilton
and chinlanghi (sp?)
 
yeah, that'd be coool. I've kicked around doing the vented work with drills and cutting tools on one meself, cause it looks good.

I dunno if I should have a khuk want list as I've bought 3 in a short time again. Still:

Tibetan sword (specific weight requirments, and fullered)
Berk Special, carved antler-handled tools
Kerambit (mebbe), or that knife o' Kis'
Hanuman

But i have so many nice ones already. I'm sated fer a while. If I look to my left or right or directly behind me in my back office, I see three or mor HI objects. Dat's good coverage.;)

BDC 14 inch
M-43
Hanshee M-43 hybrid
Sirupti 15 inch silver mounted.
 
I not only WANT, I'm Actually LUSTING for a 17" to 18" Foxy Folly around 26 ounces!:eek: :rolleyes: :D :eek:
 
I want to get some more PenKives. However, I'm kind of thinking that my next project knife might be an AK bowie.
 
I keep lusting for a M-43. Maybe I'll get lucky on one of the blem specials.

I am so in on that Yvsa. Throw me done for a wood handle one...

on my list?

15" AK with non-habaki bolster and no cho creep.
20" AK with non-habaki bolster and no cho creep.

15" Carved handle AK, non-habaki bolster and no cho creep.

20" Sirupati, non-habaki bolster and no cho creep.

Kothimoda... NHB NCC

I can see why the habaki bolster, i assume it makes the sheaths easier to fit and make. Still i prefer the old style, small bolsters. I do have one question... should the bolster cover part of the blade or the tang?

The cho creep in my uneducated opinon should not be there.

I also like the smaller curved handles. though i understand for those who have extra large paws the advantage to having the larger handle.

But this is a tired old argument. For now, i'd like to see the cho creep take a hike.

I should have maybe designated a wood handle but at this point I would settle for most anything. If'en I din't like it I can always replace a handle!
I wouldn't even complain about the smaller habaki bolster.:eek: :rolleyes: :p ;)
Hopefully things will loosen up here in a few weeks and I'll be able to buy a another knife now and then.:D
 
How Bura made that folder I really don't know. I'd sure like to see him do it. I think he may have a mill hidden away somewhere because that damned thing looked like it had been machined, not hand crafted.
