Khuks

Post by Gonzo_Beyondo »

Don't know if there's any interest in these at all??

They make hatchets and machetes obsolete, and it's rare if not impossible that you can get a fully handmade knife for these kind of prices.

an inventory/arsenal of Jungles, Minis, Super-minis, i think theres an AK in there lol

I even have little letter openers (mini khuks) with brass blades!! I polished them all up today, and i'm working on setting up proper photo conditions indoors. Hopefully soon i can present some really nice pics. These were taken at midnight under a ceiling light :roll:

Let me know what you guys think!

Mr. Gonzo_Beyondo,
Where would one find such a neat blade? Those are great! I have a actual
use for one of those.

Khukuries are great but for LIGHT brush my Collins Machete is faster and easier. Once things get heavy the Khukuri wins easily.

Mr. Vagrant,

You have to see some lighter models. True, the AK's and Bone cutters are heavy blades, meant for chopping... But, light and quick blades are also a favorite of mine.

For brush tho it is true, no sense in swinging more weight than is needed. I totally follow where you're coming from.

Mr. Claudester,
I have sent you a PM. Thank you for your intrest.

Anyone who would like to talk more about these, is invited to contact me directly. I love to talk about them and i'm glad to share what i know!

I disagree. I think the Bonecutter is great for brush. The two best brush khuks I have are the Bonecutter and Ganga Ram Special. Both are capable of good chopping, but the edge is fine enough to catch limbs. On the other hand I think on the Ang Khola that the angle is so steep it just doesn't work for brush. You end up beating the limbs off. At least with the one I have.
