The Gelbu has won my heart. It looks fantastic. The Reti looks like a fun little fighter. Might need to be on the look out for one of those;)

That Gelbu is fantastic too.

dang, i should've waited a day. I think i like that m43 better ...but dear lord its a beast. Over 2lbs is a bit much for me.

--In the forum archives from back in the day i come across m43s that are in the 24-30 oz range. They make'n em bigger these days?

OOOOh! Thank you kindly sir but not wacky enough for my bald head. Altho it is very nice and you cant beat the price. Go ahead and snag it! Those pins are nice too! Id like to have a couple of them to cross! I dig the new Gelbus Tirtha is making. I sure do like seeing those deep fullers come back!
 
Bugger off!? Wow. Bugger Off Bawanna. EMS on hat pin. Cheers, Bugger Off Bookie
 
Got the DD on the M43, cost me $280 AUD lol oh well. Broke again this week :o

I need help guys. Tell me I did the right thing?? I don't need to eat or drink beer this week??? Definitely going to get my money's worth out of this one >_< I'll take this one out into the bush and send in some pics of it in action

You did the right thing! Pictures in the bush would be awesome.

Eating I suppose is optional but no beer down yonder for a week. Never heard of such a thing. Might be too much.
 
Dan, no worries. Just finished a Toohey's Red Bitter, mate, so I'll hoist a Toohey's Blue to mull over your question. If I come up with an answer, great. If not, another Blue will probably do the trick, eh?
 
Too right boys, I had a few too many last night anyway, might do me good to lay off...but god I'm hanging for a beer aye, not a chance going a week without a beer, too bloody hot lol good to know you can get tooheys in the states, might plan a trip there after all :D

Yeah I'll take the m43 out to my local forest jus down the road and do some bushcraft with her, send in some piccys, might even take a video, but that's annoying without a go pro or a stand. See what happens :)

And after reading that review on the M43, I decided I'm going to make that my bush khuk and see how it goes :) might get a kydex sheath or leather pants made up :o

Thanks mate, I've been holding out for a M43 and thought, stuff it, jus get one. I'm not sure if it's on the heavy side but I'm used to swinging hammers and ratchets and chainsaws around one handed so I'll be right. It's only a kilo :P

And don't worry mate, I drink guiness too, so you weren't far off the mark. I'll crack one tonight for ya and we can have an international beer together, then we should crack a tooheys for Bookie, then some whiskey for bawanna. Karda's shout! :D

Guinness! Someone mention Guinness? Elixir of the gods. Bookie's fortifier. Goes great with Butterfingers, too!
 
Sorry DTKM, I am an advocate of one of your Trans-Tasman neighbor's brews Leopard lager is my brand of choice from that area. If I drink an Australian I usually go for Castlemaine Extra Dry as the flavor reminds me of the O'keefes Extra Olde that I used to drink in Canada when growing up.

Guinness, a full meal in a bottle for when you plan to drink your dinner! :D
 
wow missed this earlier, great stuff, somebody better grab that reti or I will be out some cash
