Fun with the Khukuri

Hi Bill,

I just found your new forum.

The kids and I have been out in the yard today cutting up plum tree branches to put into the lawn trash container. Of course we were using the 15” Ang Khola. The kids actually wanted to help. We all had a good time turning the big ones into little ones. After we filled two of the containers, about a cubic yard each, I showed my son how to use the chakma (steel) that comes with the khukuri to realign the edge. After steeling the edge was back to its usual hair popping sharpness. No sharpening was necessary.

We’re having great fun with this knife.
