Paracord bracelets are the supreme beings way of showing you have too much spare time on your hands...knit a pair of shocks as at least they have a use ;)

So tell me more about this 10" golok from India I've been carting around for years now. Its got issue number, date and arrow mark on the blade.
Who made it, where and why bother - (considering they already had the 13" design)? Just curious.
The 13" martindale sounds a real beast, but to be honest for me getting out and about, it has been the very portability of this thing that made it so useful. Any larger and it would have stayed at home as a luxury garden tool to worry the neighbours with.

Apparently made in India. By a company that makes kukris for the Indian army. Imported by Webtex and sold with a poorly fitting bayonet sheath. Quite a few have turned up broken.

But if it works it works! And I agree with you on the size issue.

Cheers, And.

Proper Grammar: Learned or Learnt? Which is correct grammar, "Today I learned some grammar" or "Today I learnt some grammar" I've been saying the words so much they
don't even sound or look like real words
any more. Asked by Jimmy H - 5 years ago - Resolved Question: Report Abuse Best Answer Both are correct. It has nothing to do with
bad grammar and is merely a spelling
alternative. "Learnt" has been more or less
abandoned in the US. However you will
find it alive an well in British English! Similarly you will find burnt, spelt and knelt
