Thanks very much Bob, I was ready to hit the button on the M43 but you saved me from my own self.

Looks really good. I need to stay focused, I have to get a Thamar Dui Chira or Tin Chira on my wall.

Well done.
 
M-43 is a deal. Nice grab.

Another Monster AK, and by Lok too! I need to focus, and wait for my YCS....patience, patience...

I do love Lok's work!

Gosh durn, these bad boys went quick. Somebody scoop that Monster AK and we'll call it a day.

That thing is gorgeous too, not sure my arms are up to swinging that beastie anymore but I'd sure like to try.
 
Nice grab on the M43. I've been wanting one at that weight. I sent an email anyway, but alas its gone.
 
I didn't have an M-43 in my collection, and I really like Thamar Bahadur's work, so I had to jump on this one. I do have a CAK, but it's one of the models with the finger-groove handle, and I'm just not sure that handle works for me, so I couldn't pass up this CAK by Bhakta, either. But I've really blown my entire toy budget here over this last week, so this shark is going to be toothless for a while...

Thamar's work is really special. I know how you feel about having to get a blade if it's made by a favorite kami.

I really love Lok's work, some of his stuff can be super light, and his "big" stuff is weighted so well, that they don't even feel as heavy as they actually weigh, when you have them in hand.
 
Good grabs bob... You are lucky I was at a customers office because I would of been all over that M43. Great score buddy!
 
Mopars did very well this week. I'm very happy for ya bud. A little jealous but I looked it up in the good book and it ain't no sin to covet another mans sharp pointy things.
 
moparsbob, take the monster first.

That monster AK is really something, but I already have several khukuris that I've found are too heavy for me to actually use - 50 ounces is not something that I'd really want to swing one-handed.

Would you look at those perfect condition triangle boxes in the background. That is soooooo awesome. Must hurt to send those beautiful things away with each sharp pointy thing.

They make terrific testers for cutting. I always take a swipe at the box and slice it in half to test the "feel" of the khuk. Mine are all cut up into little pieces well before recycle day.

Wow! Bhakta is putting out some very impressive work. He was my favorite Kami until I received a couple Lachhu Kami khuks and now its a toss up between the two. Both of their attention to detail is extraordinary. Their polish and fit are also top notch.

Box killer!!!! I save every one I get. Wife dumped the nuts out of the one that Ndog sent me and put em in a coffee can, then burned the box. I was NOT happy. Doubt she'll do that again lessen she just wants to tick me off, happens sometimes. I'm still figurin on making me a chandelier out of em first chance I get.

A paper mache chandelier... now that's something I would like to see.
 
My ideal M43! Nice grab Mopar, good thing too. If it weren't for my meeting, I would have tried and if gotten, been in the doghouse. Thanks for the save!
 
Man, I would love to get my hands on that 50oz monster. I think I could handle the weight. I really don't NEED it, but I sure do want it:P However, I also can't afford it, so there ya go. It's be perfect for a shark looking for a herculean tree splitter. Man, she sure is pretty.
 
In the book of bawanna, long out of print, ok never in print, never made it that far, it clearly states that a "want" creates a "need".

Basically in laymans terms which of course is the only language I know and speak fluently, you "need" the monster to satisfy the "want" for the monster.

So tell the missus that Bookie said it was ok and you'll make up for it next summer with an extra pool or two or seven.
Heck if the truth won't work LIE. I got your back on this one.
 
In the good book, BS That I have Known, which contains the Book of Bawanna, it clearly states that: Brother Bookie learneth early on that ye spouse will not be trifled with before ye be napping as lightening cometh in small packages and will surely strike thee about the head and shoulders with monotonous regularity, ye tummy wilt knot up and spasm until a week from Tuesday should the sacred word KHUKURI be mentioned before a trip to Saks 5th Avenue, Guccui's, Burberry's, and the Bently dealership is not visited first and offerings tendered. And it came to pass that a Hawai'ian Cruise MIGHT provide suitable sacrifice should the shopping trip to London be not made before ye Wedding Anniversary cometh around. In which case, ye lips best be in close contact with her fanny perpendicular and with much haste.

In the rare and mystical book Corn Patch Book of the Dead, it says that in order for one to meet his maker, one must be pure of heart because the little woman expects a clean and tidy heart when she rips it from your chest if you mention the sacred word KUK if she does not possess a new pair of cheap Gucci shoes, a Mark Klein handbag, or Louis Vitton customized case for a hot pink .44 auto-mag with silencer with matching cosmetic clutch purse.

...and Bookie says: You guys suffer. I have a custom M43 being made and until I get it, you're on your own as I intend to be alive when it finally arrives! Talk to your own wife!!
