Thanks for the good idea Joe, and thanks to everybody that's acting on it. I gotta tell ya you guys are killing me. So many beautiful khuks I get to fondle and then hand to somebody else, it's a nerve wracking thing for a khuk lover to do. The 18" Bura made Kobra that Mike (Raghorn) sent is hypnotically beautiful, with a blade that sings and a handle that glows in the dark. Ouch, ouch, ouch.
I figured the best way to steel myself against all this exquisite agony is to start by handing out my khuks first. Today I hand out three, my 12" Siru "Biteleaf" that was my first HI khuk, my 18" AK "Wood Witch" so beautifully made by Shanker, and my Bura made WWII "Moondragon" that Rusty sent to me in Afghanistan. Again, let me say OUCH, OUCH, OUCH.
One is going to an Air Force person, and two to the Army, but all of them part of the III Corps family here at Fort Hood. And lest y'all feel too sorry for me, there's a practical reason I'm giving away my khuks first. Those blades are well honed and well tested. If time allows I promise to do no less for the other khuks I hand out.
Jeez, I really do need that beer
