If the BirGhorka kamis are willing, I hope to get a 30 inch Yvsa Cherokee Special that would make a Las Vegas showgirl look plain...

I am in the process of checking possibility for this model.

As soon as I get enough money together for a rotary tool (Ryobi 
) so I can make a model, the two handed khuk will become a reality. I still haven't decided on a blade to base it on, but I'm flipping a coin between the UBE and the YCS.
But in order to get the money, my other spending fancies will have to go on hold... guitars, another flute (I REALLY like the one I got already... now I want a higher pitched one)... sharpening gear, and of course... more Khuks

That's what keeps the US economy alive, Ala. Keep spending!

Alan you don't need a rotary tool to get started, or to finish a model for that matter.
All you really need is a larger knife and a small blade like the ones that's found on the great American Barlow or a Stockman for that matter.
However a scroll or saber saw is handy for cutting out the profile.

Yvsa,
Good point. I just might have to resort to this as no paycheck will be forthcoming this month
However, I do have access to a scroll saw at a friend's house. Now I just wish I had my old Barlow pocket knife... I haven't seen that one since 5th grade
Uncle,
Unfortunately the US Economy is going to be on its own... no more spending from me for a while (most likely... well, in emergencies maybe...). I'm going to go on my rice and goat diet to get ready for my move to Nepal

Just about right for special occasions... I could lose weight, get in shape, de-stress and learn a new trade/skill all at the same time. Not to mention the beautiful country and friendly people. This is getting better and better... Geez, they should charge money for this
