I love my khukuris , which I purchased from KHHI in Nepal and who in my opinion are the original and best manufacturer to buy from . I am actually in the process of designing a new model for them that will be going into production later in the year , and because I have been given pretty much a...

Hopefully will eventually get there someday . That looks like a very basic but strong full tang job which would take some abuse . does it hold its sharpness well ? Thanks Mike

Hello Highbinder , I would love to go to Nepal and have a mosey around and see how their culture actually works , but unfortunately I have two replacement knees which don't do the work I used to do with them , and with Nepal being quite a mountainous Country I think I would find it rather...

hello Tommyd345 , sorry this is a little late but Ive been away a lot . Also sorry you don't think I did justice to HI khukuris . I actually do think they manufacture really well made kuks and have a great service to their customers . Its just that in my opinion I do not like what I perceive...

Hi Trotsky , I forgot to say if the leatherwork is crap on the scabbard , you can buy the green / brown / or camouflage self sticking tape (what sticks to itself) and just wrap it round the kukri scabbard .

Hi Trotsky , Yeh if its the kukri Im thinking of it is a lovely piece of kit but it is a lot more expensive now £157 plus postage . Its the one I would like to own but Im not paying that sort of money . Anyway I have a sneaky feeling KHHI are going to launch a similar model which I would...

Hi Michael , I know its rather late replying to your thread but ive just seen it . Easiest way to sharpen your kukri is once you have sorted any damage out to the edge of the blade , just lay a thick telephone directory on a flat surface and on top of that lay a sheet of wet and dry sand...
