I'm partial to the Yak and Fish knife in the first group. A little different.

Very nice selection today and a bunch that folks have been looking for.
 
Fish knife is cool!! Picked up 15in char chirra on dotd few weeks ago - great feel & awesome looks - might be my new favorite. Of course group C, absolutely cannot go wrong with vuk at $45!! Great deals

Considering the crosshatching and the fuller, I think that "Chainpuri" is a really a Chitlangi (and a great bargain).
Over 20 inches and less than $100, and made by Purna!
(The HI catalog has the 21" Chitlangi priced at $255.)
 
I'm thinking your right Meister Tall. I'm not very good at picking out the different models but now that you mention it, I'd say your spot on.
 
Some VERY interesting metal finishing on a few of those blades. Cool change of pace!

EMS sent for 15 inch 18 Panameary by Ram Kumar. Satisal wood handle. Tiny hairline crack and natural grain mark on horn handle. Beautiful knife at $89. I sent an email first for the 20 ounce 15 inch angkhola before I noticed the Panameary, I hope I didn't make it confusing.
Edit: Got the Panameary! Payment sent. I'm so excited to finally get a real khukuri!

I do believe your right Mr. Tall! Sure looks like Chit to me!
I also have to say that Ram Kumar VUK has some fine looking wood. A little fine sanding and oiling and I think some exceptional stuff will come out of it! Grats Largefsc. I think you got a sleeper thats going to wake when you get it!
