Recently acquired Kukri.

Greetings all, although I already have an old Kukri I have been on the look out for another. Seeing this one for sale on-line at what looked to be a bargain price (Boy have they gone up in price) I have bought it.
I only have the vendors pictures at present, I will take more when it arrives. For me the selling point was the size, 40 cm long in total, 30 cm blade which is larger than most of those made for "those who travel". It was advertised as a 19thC Nepalese piece, and if it is I will be delighted. Comments invited and indeed welcomed.
