A khukri for the kitchen.

I'll finalize these both since there is interest. Need make some full size foam board mock ups.

my tax return gets here, will be ordering some more khukris. Get a good chunk of my wish list going.

And get some names for them.
 
The blade is similar to a pen knife, which looks like it would be a good kitchen tool. But all khukris look similar. Handling will be different.

I want something that handles more like a heavy kitchen knife, So the handle is more like a cleaver, or chef knife. It's really the main difference I wanted.

sketched these out full size,
#1 chef came in at 13.5". Would try to have it around 1/4" thick
#2 recurve is 12.75", would be a full 3/8"
 
been really bored so I got the mocks up pictures and colored them

Unfortunately, you may have to delay your custom orders with the recent Kami developments. They are without Bura and Murali and Pradip is hurt, this means there is an EXTREME lack of man power. You may have to hold off for a while before placing any special orders. I only say this because I attempted on last week and was advised to give things some time to get back on track before I ask for anything special.
 
That first one looks very much like an AK bowie. Here's one with a sinew and resin handle by Andrew Colglazier:

They are nice designs, the Bowie is nice too.... maybe someday when the Kami thing stabilizes...
