Default Monstrous Kukri for comment

Hello!

Today I've came across that big Kukri I've bohught some time ago.

The hilt is made from aluminuim and brass. Steel massive and heavy blade measures 50 cm (20 inch) in lenght. Quality made.

Leather covered scabbard with deterioratins suggesting its age.

In fact, it does feel old. Atl least 19th century.

But I just cannot imaging it as a battle piece.


Am I wrong? A tourist piece?
