Really nice price. It's not calling to me the way some others have though. It's just me wanting to pull the trigger. Thats a bad sign if it's just me..
 
I'm tempted to get that Jola. That looks awesome:)

Excellent choice on the Gelbu, Homeka:) i would have sharked it if you hadn't.
 
Yeah Jake, it sure does spec out nicely, plus I get one of the new business cards!

Thanks for posting these. Im new to the HI family but I can already tell you guys are awesome. Hopefully next time some good deals come along I'll have some money! :)
 
If that 18.5"/28oz Hanuman were a 18.5"/28oz Garuda instead, I would have snapped it up. (A friend of mine has a Garuda fixation, I'll leave it at that).
 
I have the brother to that horn handled Hanuman, it's a very nice piece, so nice it'll not see much use unless Zombie hordes arise.

Phew! Saved from the tarwar. Nice fuller and design on blade and handle.
 
Rajkumar is a bit hit and miss with his tarwars. Some of his, like today, have a slight taper down the blade and especially toward the tip, like the fat version of a short tibetan sword. But other times, like the one from 8/1, he really nails it with a nice classic profile and fatter sweep to the tip. I have a chiruwa tarwar on order and really hope it looks like the latter.
