Strap it Where? / How much does a Ghopte weigh?

At the khonvention, Uncle had a very nice Balance. On the shorter side, very lithe and quick. I was sorely tempted...
 
Shirley, you're going to love that Ghopte Balance. It's a very sweet handling khuk, and, due to it's excellent design, performs like a much larger khukuri than it's compact size would have you expect. Take another look at the picture. The blade is curved/angled in such a manner that as you chop something the blade is combining impact force with slicing action. It will feel a little odd using it at first if you've already gotten used to the straighter khuks. But once you get the hang of it you'll better appreciate what an efficiently designed tool it is. You're going to love it, and that unique heart shaped cho is just a bonus.:D :) :D

It was that "slice while you chop motion" in your field report that was the clincher.
Small and light myself with a small and light blade; figured I could use all the help I could get!
:D

Heart shaped cho?! That's the cho for me!!!
