sure, mine is quite a bit bigger, in fact and has a rather thick spine and a double bevel ( I know there is a specific tem but I can't remember is that a Chira?) , nevertheless it is a good knife despite the " tourist" designation.
I feel that, often times, there is the tendency to dismiss a kukri with an engraved blade and a decorated scabbard as being a " tourist piece", irrespective of the fact that it may be a good blade all the same. Many of the Kukri houses producing modern Kukris produce a different " grade" of modern kukri but, let's be honest, some of those " real kukris" will be rarely used in the filed to be doing what a kukri does best, chopping.
