Okay, sorry about the cheeze-ball name! But two of these babies do remind me of teeth. Here they are:
The smallest one is about 9 inches overall length, so these qualify as knives and not choppers. And the chakmak and karda are pretty tiny. However, the handles and scabbards are very special. Here are the descriptions:
1) (Top Most Khukuri): Stag tip handle, "balance" khukuri blade. Dhankute styled sheath is actually see-through (you can see the blade inside it the horn is so thin). Fittings are all nickle-silver. Stag is smooth. $89.00.
2) (Middle Khukuri): Stag tip handle, "Balance" khukuri blade. Dhankute styled sheath is actually see-through (you can see the blade inside it the horn is so thin). Fittings are nickle silver. This one is slightly bigger than the first one. Handle is "rough" stag horn. $99.00.
3) (Bottom) - Standard handle, brass buttcap. Handle is standard tang, but has "false" pins on the horn for decoration. Again, dhankute style scabbard is see-through. Balance blade. The largest of the three. $69.00 (it's just a regular dhankute for the most part, but much smaller).
Call 703-536-5555, ext 101 to order (after registering here to avoid confusion), or register here and then email me with CC info or word that you're sending a check. And if you can't tell, we're pretty swamped right now, so if you can handle the transaction all in one phonecall or email, that would be a blessing to us here at the puzzle palace!
Thanks,
Craig.
