Afghanistan is certainly a possibility for the plainer of your two kukris, although I wouldn't rule it out as being Indian in origin also. I would also revise the age estimate given by your son's friend to mid to late 19th century.
I will start a hunt for the stamp as soon as I return home later this week, and shall let you know if I find any further information.
With kind regards,

Hello Chris,
I tend to agree wit you regarding the age. My original thoughts were that the origin was Indian I never gave Afghanistan a thought but it seems that there may be a likely hood that it could have been made there so at the moment the jury is still out on this one but I am hoping that you may confirm it one way or the other. I very much appreciate your input.
My PC is with the repairers and I am not expecting to have it returned for at least another week. All the signs indicate that the main processor has failed, just hope the hard drive is OK.
Regards
Miguel
