Captain Boileau's kukri from the Gurkha Museum
This battalion armourer made kukri is hidden away in the store rooms of the GM in Winchester. If I remember correctly the specs on this kukri were roughly; a 35cm long tin chira blade, and a weight of around 800-850 grams, and that Captain WS Boileau served in the 7th Gurkhas in WW1.
