Our new Kami, Rajkumar, also known as The Prince,
has created a brand new gigantic Khukuri, Tin Chirra,
for some lucky forumite's collection. It is 27" long
and weighs 70 oz.

The handle is carved satisal wood with a white metal inlaid
design. I am impressed by the excellence of his
workmanship and he always has something new to
share with the forum.

This is a beautiful knife and is truly one of a kind
collector's dream come true. This knife is classy
and has a personality of its own.

I only have one Gigantic Knife , so it truly is
First Come, First Served. If you can see this
beautiful knife hanging on your wall or filling
out your collection, don't wait. It won't last long.

Overall length --27''
Weight --70 oz
Spine thickness --5/8''
Carved satisal wood handle with white metal inlaid
Top quality scabbard by new Sarki
Excellent investment at $295. *SOLD*
Eamil to order

Whats 70oz between friends..?? That is absolutely drop dead gorgeous!!! And only 5/8ths thick :0)

Just take a look at that handle!!
 
Nevermind the Chirras, look at those Karda and Chakmak!

Rajkumar is awesome!

wow..this is getting better!
 
Well now they are simply coming faster than this pauper could ever hope to afford them.

That one is suh-weetness embodied! I cold easily wield it but it is far too pretty to chop with... Like the Bale, this would be one of those magnificent blades that you would only break out come a major battle. This is the sort of blade you take to those major, history changing battles so you can be sure of your steel and of making your mark as one of the heroes of the battle. Armageddon, Ragnarok, Qiyamah, call it what you will, this is what I want with me when it comes... :D

(until the next one is posted and makes me say all this again)
 
This is really exiting.
It looks like HI are getting back on track, and fast.
Flood?...what flood,:D lets carve some handles.
Really well done by Raj the Prince.:thumbup:
 
What I would have liked to see on this though, and this is a minor point, would have been to have the fullers run farther along the blade like they do on the smaller ones. Take a Look a Vim Tin Tin and you will see what I mean. Maybe this one would have shaved a half pound of weight if they had run down to the bolster. Of course once we see all the nice engraving The Prince has put along that flat, we may discover the method to his madness. Hence my request for haptagud to give us all a nice photo spread of this lovely blade. :)

I would also like a really nice, clear shot of his Kami Mark for my files since on the New Hanuman it isn't a typical marking.
 
Good thing she only had one. If she had two I would be making the 'one over each shoulder back harness for the pair as I sit and wait for USPS.
