[DanTheKnifeMan]

Ems on dui chirra

Oh nice deal on Dui Chirra! That gorilla glue works well! Nice job Kanchhi! I have been using that for repairs on wood cracks and it is unbelievably strong stuff! Dries fast too.

 

[Bawanna]

Grrrrr1!!!

Hmmm, Well done Dirtbiker. Happy for ya buddy.

I hate you!

No really I love you not in any mano mano way though.

 

[ndoghouse]

ooooooooh the suspense! Dirt and Dan one min apart:thumbup:

 

[DanTheKnifeMan]

Also sent an EMS on the Dui Chirra at the same time >_< would have been quicker if I could figure out how to copy and paste faster on my phone.

 

[Baetis]

DOH! Missed a sweet Dui Churra! Way to go Dirtbiker, nice sharking! Nicksison, they are full tang, as in the tang goes all the way through and then is peened at the back.

Ems on the WWII

I'll have to review techniques on the epoxy fix, but this should be a great work horse.

 

[Bawanna]

Actually I think they call them Rat Tail tangs. Full Tang or Chiruwa is two slabs with the handle showing metal all the way around.

Rat Tail as you say, all the way through and peened is very strong.

 

[Baetis]

You are correct Bawanna, I consider them both full tang, I need to get my terminology correct.

This dui chirra is very different from the previous Thamar dui chirras - the previous ones appeared to have three fullers, while Thamar's "Yek Chirra"s appeared to have two fullers, like this one has, but on the Yek Chirra I have, the fuller is quite different, and both of mine have more downward curve to the handles, which I really like:

Nice Yek and Dui Bob! You need a Tin

Xylum- Note what Kanchhi is doing in this post. That works great! Pack the crack with wood glue and sawdust mix with a popsicle stick or something.

I see what you mean. Thamar seems to be starting to take on some of the current kamis style while I honestly would like to see it the other way around.
