OMG It's another Kukri..... Am I infected with the bug?

[kronckew]

they were examples taken from a google image search, i don't have an ang khola khukuri, tho i do suffer occasionally from exposing my own ang khola.

hard to find good photos that show the fullers. the ang khola is an HI Angkhola with neem wood grip, the dui chirra is an HI 'foxy folly' model - i need one of these - and the last is a Tora Tin Chirra. (Tora and HI, Himalayan Imports, are the premier modern khukuri suppliers. Tora is UK based (run by one of our members in fact), HI is USA based. HI models tend to be more westernized & utilitarian and Tora's are more traditional and martial, tho they overlap. another player, khukuri house, tends to have a bit less quality control, and makes up for lower prices by high shipping costs)

my own khukuri: (plus 1 KLO*)
