There are online converters for HEIC -> JPG. For example (there are numerous others if this one doesn't work; just google "heic to jpg").

Will M,

Since you used the term HEIC, I assume that you're using a Mac:

Open the image

Go to the top left hand side of the computer screen, click on "File", and pull down to "Export"

A window will come up that will allow you to name the image, select a place to save it, and select a format option (HEIC, JPEG, JPEG-2000, OpenEXR, PDF, PNG, TIFF)

Select "JPEG" in the "Format:" pull down menu, put ".jpeg" at the end of the image name you have chosen, and save the image.

It will now be a JPEG

Sincerely,
RobT

Thanks that seemed to work converting pics.

So, HW45 and the SA proof mark... Would be good to see the whole thing. }|:o)

werecow,

From the look of the cho, I would be willing to bet that Will M's blade was made to British GI specifications.

Sincerely,

Yep, British GI spec khukri. They had to have worked at it to produce such an ugly cho design.
