Default Re: Gurkha Spec Ops



My gift from my wife arrived this week!! very nice! I promise to get some pics up, there are two other Soldiers who got this set also and at least one more on its way so I am waiting to get a pic of all of us together - will have to send that to Gurkha!!

As far as the cigars - very nice, as expected of Gurkha, I smoked one the frist night it was here - I usually let them sit for a few days when cigars get to us in Iraq but I figured that was what the pelican case was for This is a very smooth two hour smoke!!

The coin is very nice - those military types will understand the value of this

The knife, though not claimed by Extrema Ratio (I sent them an email and got a very short response back - "no that is not ours") is very nice and well made. The only engraving on it is Gurkha but the drop leg sheath does have "made in Italy" on it - where Extrema Ratio is produced. The knife does look exactly like there Doberman II

All in all - very good deal and a neat way to celebrate our deployment here.

As far as Gurkha - Smoke What You Like, Like What You Smoke!!!!!
