HI WWII Khukuri by Vim Kami

Sistal Wood handle

This ENORMOUS HI Sirupate crafted by kami Kumar is astonishing in it's finish -

30" from "stem to stern", she's a major ZOMBIE SLAYER!!! :eek::eek::eek:


For a prespective on how long this mutha is, look at the second picture with a 17.5" Ultimate Fighter...

'nuff said - wow!

17.5" HI Ultimate Fighter -

7/16" thickness on spine
6.75" top edge ...and it's frickin' sharp mate
10.25" bottom edge...like the top one...wicked edge...

Not particularly "quick" in the hand", but....God help whatever or whoever's on the receiving end when it's swingin' :cool:

My God, this thread is MASSIVE. I'm getting the HIKV from just looking at these...
 
Gotta get me a GCB to go with my Serbu now that I have seen Ryan M.'s picture and how nice they look together. ;)
