Somebody ordered this little jewel but since I trashed my order list I don't know who. It is a 15 inch Sirupati made and so marked by Kumar. Khukuri, karda, chakma, scabbard and HI superfrog all very nicely done. Snow leopard carving is pretty good and shows a full set of teeth in the leopard's mouth. The rig is a 10 out of 10 offering for $150 and I don't know where to send it.

Does this look familiar to anybody? If not, we will let it ride for a few days and then sell it to any interested party.

Is this what the snow leopards look like normally? Or is the SL an AK blade?

I've never seen a snow leopard in the flesh but I've seen pix and what we see on the handle is the carvers' interpretation of a snow leopard and not a 100% faithful reproduction.
