Update to say I picked up this kukri and the Indian Army kukri from
@BrewkitAndBasha last week. Today I had an enjoyable afternoon cleaning and sharpening the Cold Steel kukri. The Indian Army kukri will be done next, that's more of a job.
They will both be used to help with getting and keeping the "garden" in shape (more self-regrown forest and rough fellside than garden really).... and will be looked after and appreciated.
Many thanks to
@BrewkitAndBasha for his courtesy, the pickup arrangements worked first time and I'd have no hesitation in buying from him again.
