Hey guys so I got word on pricing from Yangdu. The GCB is quite expensive so unfortunately I think I'm going to have to stick to just getting a 20" CAK. Maybe one day in the future I'll go for the GCB.
That makes sense Shavru.
Thanks for your good wishes... I just sent in the order for the 20" CAK. Looking forward to getting it and I will put up pics of it once I get it!!!
Good point Smodtactical. That unique Khuk shape is indeed a head turner every time.
Phillll, My Bura Bonecutter is 16" and a "mere" 3/8 inch thick. My 16" CAK is 7/16 inch, I of course and just ecstatic to be able to compare them in person.
Have I mentioned how much I love HI and how much my checkbook hates that I found this forum lately?
Nope Smodtactical. The CAK is still thicker than a bonecutter. The bonecutters do vary a bit as with all of the blades, but on average there is a reason the CAK is the only one warrantied as a prybar.
In some ways I think the CAK is more awesome than the GCB even in the looks department, because firstly its a khuk and they already look very interesting... and secondly its pure thickness makes it very imposing/impressive.... they are generally thicker than GCBs I believe.
You are right about the thickness. GCB is a giant but is still a Chitlangi and has a very different edge geometry than an Ang Khola. AK is a dedicated chopper with a thicker edge and Chitlangis are thinner faster and made more for slicing through.. well...meat like substances!
