L&G -
I did a quick search on this forum to see what anyone had to say about the Thai Kukri.
My GF went to india & I asked for "a real kukri, not a tourist job. I want an army type one." So what I get appears to be a flash tourist job with "AR M Y" badly stamped on it. She meant well.
So I ebayed and found this:
I pulled it out to dispose of the Halloween pumpkin before it started to rot. Whooeee, with a slicing chop I couldn't even tell the gourd was there. Not that a pumpkin is representative of anything but a squash, but still. Made me think of you guys *sniff*
The blade is 10.5" long. The tip is almost in line with the handle, so it should stab well. Made from heat treated spring steel. 3/16" thick.
Anybody know any more about these things? How about sheaths? I've seen River City sheaths mentioned on here. The knife doesn't have a guard, dunno if that'd be an issue.
