Id suspect this one to be Indian made, but could be mistaken.
Id guess blades about 14 inches? Whats it weigh?

Ello Mate.
LOL!!!!! Blade is 14". Some guess mate
Thanks for coming in on this one.
Here's a shot of it next to the slightly smaller presentation kuk I got recently.
The presentation one weighs 430g, the larger one is 590g.
It feels a lot heavier in-hand. The back spine is a meaty 11mm.
Could you explain "longleaf angh khola blade"?
Remember I'm entirely ignorant of the terminology of these beasties!
Indian made is fine with me
Do you think that the scabbard suits it? I have a feeling it wasn't original to that other kuk?
Best
