Hello Jonathan,
Thanks for your info! Is there any working list of ethnic groups traditionally utilizing khukuris? I haven't found any on the IKRHS site...

Its generaly easier to talk about kukri when shown examples to discus, this is a typicle Indian blade & handle made like that from step one I think.

I'm not doubting that. I was speaking in general, not directed at this piece. I'm just curious about the extent of any long-established trade going on between local ethnic groups (traditionally utilizing khukuris) and/or people(s) moving around.
Owning only 2 Nepali blades, I don't have any example of a khukuri that moved around and possibly got rehilted. Anybody else?
Regards,
Kai
