Online Catalog mistake?

#1

Post by LeeCQC »

I was scanning through the online catalog, and came across the Barong... but, correct me if I'm wrong, is that not the Kukri that is pictured? It sure doesnt look like a Barong to me... looks like a Kukri. :eek:

Thanks for catching it, the photo was labeled wrong. We're fixing it now. :)

Ther's another mistake, in the printed version of the 2008 catalog.

Don't you have ever noticed the Salt 1 on the cover with a tasman handle ? :D

Yup, that's known. Funny indeed. Even better, this knife was sold later to some unknown customer. If he keeps it pristine, this knife may become some kind of holy grail for a collector someday :)

Also the the carbon fiber byrd wings say on the catalogue that they're made of vg10 but in the picture you can see that on the blade it says that byrd steel with the long name.
