I very much appreciate your comments--your breadth of knowledge is spectacular!
Thanks,

Happy to help Bill, my knowledge is still rather limited and to be honest I'm a recent convert to the Kukri.
They were so plentiful when I was a kid and growing up, I tended to view them as little more than a fancy billhook.
I think I linked you to an out of date version of Jonathans seminal Military Kukri thread.
This one seems to have been updated more recently.
