parang / golok

[EdS]

having broken the handle on my parang last night I'm look for an new one.

Nothing fancy or expensive - its a working tool so and suggestions.

i'm looknig for something with a blade about 30cm.

I still have one of the FKMD Parang XL from the group buy I did last year, if that's of any interest. It's new and unused, I think it's 52 quid plus postage. They're on Heinnie's site. There have been three models of the XL to my knowledge, this is the second version, with an improved heat treat but the original thinner blade and without Alfredo's logo.

I'm sure its heresy to some, but doesn't Bear Grylls do a reasonably-priced parang/golok? I'm sure I read some very favourable reviews somewhere.

something along this style, but wit hte handle on:

Um, why not put a handle back on that one,

 

[EdS]

handle is knackered.

And i don't have the time to start cutting a new one. Or the tools at the moment.

You might find something in the Condor line you like.

Let me see if I understand. You're just looking for a new handle; not a new knife? If so why don't you carve your own?

 

[EdS]

looking for a new knife really.

I could put an new handle on but at the moment I just don't have time.

They look just the job.

If you don't want the old blade then I'll gladly take it off your hands - perhaps a small swap?
