3 WW II models

[John Powell]

Here are the 3 most common kukri types used in WW II for you history buffs:
Mk II that was copied after the WW I model, M43 which is an improvement on that and the K45 that while cruder looking is a potent well made blade that weighed about 7oz less than its two cousins.

Very informative, JP. Can you keep educating us until the book comes out?

JP is probably the best source for knowledge I know of khukuris. I can't WAIT to buy his book.
