Angkhola kukri?

[tobiism]

Hello everyone, my name is Matt and I I'm curious if you can identify this kukri for me please. I do believe it is from Himalayan Imports but I don't know for sure as it arrived in a box full of knives that I bought last week. The blade is almost 11 in Long, dang near 1/2 inch thick at the hilt and almost seems to be have a concave dish(fuller?) between the spine and the top of the edge bevel.
Thank you in advance for any help you can provide.

Looks like a match:

Vim Kami's Mark is right facing Nepal Flag.

I think it might be a Ganga Ram Special instead of an Ang Khola, since the spine is more curved, not angled. Photo of 18" Ganga Ram Special from HI store:

Thank you!

GRS sounds plausible. Whatever it is, it is gorgeous!

I'd say that's an older Ganga Ram Special, with a brush finish. Cool Khukri!

Well howdy, Heber

Don't be a stranger

I agree. Looks like an older (but in very good shape) model. I can't tell but it appears to be pre-Uncle Bill's passing which was in 2005 as it don't think it has the "U.B." mark on it.

Don't worry Jake, I won't. Will be dropping in at least a few times a week. If I have something to add, I totally will. this place is still one of my internet homes.
