Gee.

I thought firearms were illegal in Limbo.

Hmmmm. Yes. If anybody is wondering about the mystique of an MK, pancelticpiper has really captured the essence of it. In my experience with many great Low Ds, the MK, indeed, best handles the inherent compromises built into this beast we call a "whistle." Tone, tuning, handling, and well,...

Whistles that I don't like the sound of, or which are out of tune, or hard to handle...

For those of the Urban Hippiedom Lite movement I recognize that living off the land and self-sufficiency was likely a foreign concept. I missed the UHL movement, but for 60's/70's suburban kids, trying living off the land for the first time, we considered the whole enterprise "heavy." i.e...
