Thanks Subal Thanks very much...

Its not at all a place to buy knife... this guy sells antiques... and some merchant navy crew come over to him to barter knives for coins... he has a hell lot of folders... and many others... but all are used... and they never look so as if they are used....

That neck knife... can i put around my neck as a locket??? ROTFL

one more doubt which i have is The name AITOR is not been mentioned anywhere on the knife... niether on the Cover, althoughn the symbol on the cover is exactly the same i have seen on websites... only the name AITOR on knife Blade is missing... so is it anyway a genuine?? coz the knige only states "control HRC" in circle and next to it its name... JUNGLE KNIFE I... Please guide...

And yes i am also contemplating on making my own new knife... with earlier discussed Wheel Leaf Spring... :mrgreen: i will surely need all of yours help....

Prasanjit,

Buddy now I am really confused, I Know that you are not an expert on knives and this is probably the first one that you have bought but still there are some things that I do not understand.

First you post a picture of the Oso Negro but we all understand that it was a bona fide mistake and that you could not clearly make out the difference.

Then after careful examination of the knife you find that it is the Aitor Jungle King II and correct the first post. We understand this. Thanks for the correction.

But now you have come up with a picture of your knife which is the Jungle King I and is completely different.

I wonder whats going on and if you have some more surprises for us.

Actually the day when i had bought the Knife... it was in my bag... and i was in office and i had no idea what knife it is untill i got the info on the forum... and wen u said it was of Aitor... i checkd da web n found it was not Oso Negro but sumthin lyk jungle knife II..... so widout even looking at the knife which was in my bag i said it was Jungle King II.....

So the same night when i went home i tuk it out n too my astonishment i found it to be Jungle Knife 1.... and i was happy that it was a big one.... :mrgreen:

So i got yet anotha reason to be jolly that night.... But i was hesitant to put this info on the forum coz it may end up Ifgians thinking what crap this Boy is upto.... First attachs the pic, then posts a website, now putting on the Jungle Knife 1... so i thought to keep it quiet...

Then i thought of directly posting my knife's pic.... Even though i dont have a camera i somehow managed it through my friends Digi and Laptop and at 1st posted the pic so that i can ask for forgiveness for the mess i have made... :stupid:

But now i give it in undertaking that the picture i have posted is the one with me... and this wont change at all... :D

Please bear me for the last time...



@ALL KNIFE CRAZIES
And yes i just went to that shop again... and there it was.... ANOTHER JUNGLE KNIFE I.... if at all anyone is interested kindly let me know.... I will ship it to you (if that is possible)

Yours looks genuine enough. Maybe a slightly different year of production. Can't comment till I see it myself.
