Indians For Guns

My New TIBETIAN EDC!
Last Sunday dawned with a ‘glint’ that reflected from the exquisitely hollow ground blade of a TIBETIAN Folding Knife, that came into my possession quite unexpectedly!
What caught my eye was the intricate etching on the knife’s fore-end just below the CHOIL and the artistic indentations on the spine of the blade.
Next were the precision hollow grinding of the belly, smooth & eclectic and lastly the dark buffalo horn handle at the end of which was the cute lanyard with a precise knot!
Apparently a ‘cottage industry’ product, the workmanship was of this EDC is of a top order….It may perhaps not bear the prestige of a ‘brand’ per say, but it has definitely found a place of pride in my motley collection of blades!
If my memory serves me right….Swiss Blades used to boast of their uniqueness by saying…….
They open with a ‘Click’ & close with a ‘Clack’….This TIBETIAN EDC ’just does that’!!!!!!

Very elegant knife sir. May I ask where you stumbled upon it ?

Brihaji, if you hear noises in the night, don't worry, it's just me stealing your EDC and other stuff!!

Awesome piece, sir! What is the provenance, if I may make so bold as to ask?

that's a beauty............
no words to express....
really good piece of art

Very nice knife Briha, congratulations!

It is work of art and heart for sure. Congratulations Briha ji.

Briha Sir,
Ill be honest here;, when I read Tibetan, I had visualized the mass produced, sold by the dozen, complete with text on the packaging that displays some very interesting use of English language , tacky stuff coming out of a sweatshop factory in China.
.............I was never so pleased to be proven wrong! The design and workmanship are just superlative! Please share the source..>!

A very nice looking blade, Brihaji.

Brihaji

AD,
It is a 'Teacher's Day' gift from a student of mine who was on a holiday in Tibet recently....Knowing my interest in knives she picked this one for me (awfully nice of her)
On checking with her, she said that a tourist guide took her to a shop in the city which sold souvenirs & stuff like that....
