I am very wary of purchasing kukri from online auctions because I find it hard to determine the older ones from more modern versions (or outright fakes). However, I took a chance on this one because it seemed to have genuine age.
What do you all think? Someone polished all the patina (if there was any) off of the blade. I appreciate that they didn't polish it down smooth, as it has a texture I quite like. The grip is of some kind of horn/antler. Can someone help identify? That too seems to have some legitimate age. Here are some specs: Overall length - approx 18" Blade length - approx. 13" Blade thickness - 6mm across the spine at the hilt Weight - 1lb 2.375oz. As always, apologies for the quality of the photos. Thanks for sharing your thoughts and impressions. |
