The Sickle Argument (Hasiya)

I read the local newspapers from Nepal when I can get them on the Internet.
One article that interested me told of a wife attacking her husband with a
sickle (hasiya) during an argument.

She hit him on top of his head and severely injured him, but did not kill him.
When she discovered that he was still alive, she walked up a hill and
jumped off a cliff, killing herself. They were very young. The wife, Sita, was
only 23 years old, and her husband, Tom Bahadur, is 25 years old.

I got a shipment of knives couple of days ago and it didn't contain any
sickles, but I expect some soon.

Thinking about the short story above, and the ending for that angry couple,
since the wife couldn't kill her husband, she killed herself. The moral of that
story for you collectors is: "Treat your wife nicely at all times. She
obviously knows where your collections of knives, sickles and swords are kept!"

Good advice indeed, Yangdu. "When Momma Ain't Happy, Nobody's Happy" is a truism I don't argue with. If I were still with my ex and had a third of the HI blades that I have now, then I doubt that I'd be able to post as I'd either be too mangled or prematurely Gone West.

P.S.-Yangdu if you get any Hasiya in and they are not all spoken for, could you drop me an email. I think I'd like one myself. Thanks.

Well now...........
I'm pretty sure a Nepali woman knows proper hasiya technique and if that young lady wanted him dead, she wouldnt have hit him on top of his head. Now that i look around me, i had better quit browsing the forums today and get all my sharp and pointies locked away proper. Better safe than sorry.
 
I use a hasiya to cut down my zebra grass every fall. No way I'd want to get thumped with one:eek:

Honestly, they're on of the best utility knives in HI's line up:thumbup:
 
Restless nights and always checking over your shoulder now GUN SNOB. Of course I'm only tzn. You'd never do anything to rile your good woman...would ya?
 
tell you what karda read the story packed all my sharp and pointy's away bought the wife some flowers told her i loved her just in case?now im sat looking over my shoulder every five minuets just in case

Were married, sometimes thats enough.;)

She learned to put up with me a long time ago.;):thumbup:

She didn't do me in with the Tomahawks, 12 gage 870, Danny and Arnold (her 2 S&W .357 model 66s) or the CAK, I may be alright for now. (if I get her car running soon!:rolleyes:)
 
Reminds me of the time my (now-ex)girlfriend blindsided me with a punch to the ear. She had gotten jealous over my spending time with an ex who I had chosen to stay friends with after the relationship. My gf requested that I stop spending time with her and I reluctantly agreed (as I could see how I would feel the same way in her shoes). One day, while I wasn't paying attention, she was on my computer and found an email from my lady friend (she was trying to reschedule after I had canceled a planned outing in accordance to my GF's wishes - however, she ended it with "XO" as is her style, even with friends). My GF jumped to her own conclusions and before I knew what had happened, I was temporarily deafened in my right ear.

The worst part was that I decided to use logic (not wise when someone is clearly in an illogical, highly emotional state). I thought I had convinced her so I turned my back, and bam! Another attempt at my right ear - which actually landed on the jaw. I broke up with her that instant and kicked her out (metaphorically! I don't hit women even under such circumstances) of the house.

That all said, I wasn't into kukris at the time... though I believe I still had a couple of cheap butterfly knives around the room :(
 
Its not like my wife doesn't know where all the stuff is kept.
It is the glint in her eye while she's rapidly dropping rounds from her Browning HP into the middle of targets at the range.
Or how she always gets under my guard.
We rarely argue...
 
i had a sister-in-law back home in cullman who was roughed up by her partner when he got drunk. she waited till he went to sleep and fractured his skull with a cast iron skillet (the skillet was unharmed, thankfully). he was in the hospital for a goodly while. when he came out of the coma, she told him 'just remember, you're bigger but you gotta sleep sometime' - he never hit her again.

he did go out and get drunk tho. she decided to lay down the law. next time it happened she told him he'd best never do it again. he said as he lay in bed 'and what you gonna do about it?'. she put two rounds from her S&W into the headboard either side of his ears - took him two years before he went out drinkin.

sadly his kidneys failed, he needed dialysis 3 times a week. their insurance bought them a machine and had her trained to put him on the machine to filter his blood. she reminded him how fast he would bleed out of she disconnected the return tube, and how slowly he'd die in agony if she didn't scrupulously disinfect the device. he became a model husband. an thus endith the tale.

wimmin may be smaller, but god made up for it by making them meaner.

p.s. - i also remember an argument i had with my shortly to be ex-wife which showed me graphically why they put guards on combat knives and why csi always looks for the perps blood as well as the victims in a stabbing.

she tried to stab me with a steak knife and missed as i was trying to get the heck outta the kitchen. so instead she hit the wall and her hand slid down the grip onto the blade. she was a lot nicer as i drove her to the hospital. (20 stitches). i still have the steak knife. it's one of my favourites. ;)

A very good but not the only reason to be nice to the wives. The other is to keep credit card statements showing just how much we spend on our HI treasures not in the same draw as the latest AK .
