That khukuri is also a balance knife! Beautiful and alive in your hand. It is probably more of a martial arts knife than a chopper. Maybe even just a piece of art. It definitely sings to me. But it told me it belongs to someone else. Anyone else hear it singing?


I kept it on my dresser because it looks so good. I couldn't bear to scratch it.



I hope she finds a good home.


Oh, did I mention that it is perfectly balanced? Ram Kumar is the balance knife master.

I like it quite a bit! :thumbsup:

It was a touch smaller than I was expecting, but it fills a nice spot in my collection and the checkered horn handle is top notch.
Good to hear. It has a nice amount of palm swell. Probably feels great in the hand.

Hey Eric! I was going to send you a PM about this knife but your inbox is full.

I ended up trading this blade for some other goodies. If you would like to know where to hunt it down, let me know.
 
Thanks. I didn't realize it was full. I actually still don't know how to use BladeForums. You can always send an email to my name erictheredbeard and it is @outlook.com
