by the way, if anyone with a golok would be so kind as to post some pictures and dimensions, i'd appreciate it. Mine weighs just over one pound with a blade just under 11". It is light, fast, and chops like crazy! ![[Linked Image from i173.photobucket.com]](http://i173.photobucket.com/albums/w64/rivershaman/BARK%20RIVER/BRKT008-1.jpg) ![[Linked Image from i173.photobucket.com]](http://i173.photobucket.com/albums/w64/rivershaman/BARK%20RIVER/BRKT022.jpg) ![[Linked Image from i173.photobucket.com]](http://i173.photobucket.com/albums/w64/rivershaman/BARK%20RIVER/Fixed014.jpg)
Horned, dangerous, and off my medication.

how bout blade width? at the widest and thinnest points It is 1 1/8" wide just past the choil, widening to 1 7/16" at the tip. It is .224" thick all the way to the end at the spine with a true zero convex grind. Overall length is nearly 17". Here are the official specs, but they vary some. Golok Specs: Overall length: 16.775 Inches Blade Length: 11.1 Inches Cutting Edge: 10.775 Inches Steel: 1095 @ 57 rc Steel Thickness: .224 Inch Weight: 17.125 Ounces Balance point is One Inch in front of the handles.

Hey guys, what do y'all think of this bad boy? ![[Linked Image from i133.photobucket.com]](http://i133.photobucket.com/albums/q72/Tolly71/hunter049a-large.jpg) It's made by Burt Foster, and here are the specs: W-2 steel with differential heat treat with a gorgeous hamon 10.25" overall 5.5" blade length Samber Stag scales Nicely tooled sheath I can't quit looking at it, and I have a guy wanting to do a little trading with one. What do y'all think? That looks amazing Tolly! I can't stop looking at it either.. Beautiful. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/bowdown.gif" alt="" />

i think the curved edge and handle will be enough to create the effect, but i tried that last time and as you said it didn't work. i'm hoping i can get it right this time with a more subtle curve on the edge.
if it still doesn't, i'll add it.
thanks vic.

I really like the Goloks. I bought several of them and have used my user a lot. It's light and quick and chops well for it's size and configuration.
