Last Day's Gift Knives for 12/24

I Have anything compare to you guys!! I start picking up HI blades only in the past year.

Hopefully in the next few months i will find some free time and take some pics!!
 
Thanks Conan...been wanting one for awhile, and this one is made by Tirtha, and I love his work, so I pulled the trigger on this one. Besides, it looks like it wanted to come home with me...:)

I suggest you open a new thread, to make sure the pictures don't get lost in-between other posts. I, for one, am very interested to see them. Welcome!
 
The Tirtha 16" 31oz CAK just arrived, and it's a BEAST! The girth on the handle is substantial, but allows a nice solid grip, and it isn't too big for a snap chop. I like the "flared" ends on the karda and chakma. The fullers that Tirtha put on this blade is crazy, deep and very definitive.

Needs a little work on the blade, some burr removal and sharpening of the blade via mousepad. The handle needs a little TLC near the buttplate, no big deal, just some polishing. It'll give me some "alone" time with her, and get to know her a little better, that's all. Lines, edge, the whole blade, just screams, made by Tirtha!

Here's the pics:







 
Thats sweet cul! Your right about them lines. These Kamis seem to be getting even better these days if thats possible. Tirtha makes an awesome blade! I dont have a huge hand but I really appreciate the larger girth. Helps index the blade better. You can keep it light in the hand and really snap some energy into your swing! Beautiful blade! Congratulations!
