Reid, I do not speak or read English, but I have the great fortune of 
having a colleague on my team who does!  At any rate, I don't think I've 
found an English Killi website.  The good thing is that Norwegian is 
sometimes so close to English as to inspire giggles.  'Turkopps,' which is 
what I have, means a touring cup. 'Snapskopps' are cups for Schnapps, and 
'Suppe Kopp' is a soup cup.  'Turkopp med karabinkrok' is a touring cup 
with—a carabiner! I haven't found a US stockist.  My secret desire is that 
Riv would carry them.  The middle size would be poifect.  I mean, if they 
carry Swedish axes, they gotta have equal time for the Norskies (but then 
are the Danes and the Finns gonna wanna get in on this action?  and I 
suppose Devold counts as Norsk...) 

But here's an English article on Mr. Killi:

Yes, the wood burning was done by yours truly.  To get such a magic cup, 
you would have to practice and practice!  Or obtain a cup and suggest a 
barter with me!
