Kukri from Birmingham (UK) antique arms fair.

She is a beauty; with all of the luck that you have been having lately finding blades, I think that you need to buy a lottery ticket.

More around WW1 with a butt cap with the 2 screws like that.

Well Done David a lovely example.
My understanding of Kukuri is limited but I believe having the fullers on the blade (known as chirra) is desirable.
Great to see the horn handle not cracked and from the sounds of it a good price also, which is always preferable.
Keep well,
Ken
