another klo - this time amazingly accurate :D

interesting with the guard......hmm......
 
I like both the knife and the scabbord. Wonder how hard it would be to make a scabbord like that. Maybe out of ebony or rosewood.

That is truly a really beautiful piece!!!! I surely wouldn't mind having such in my collection. The scabbard while not practical for carry adds to its mystique. Me Likey! :D :cool: :D
 
Nice piece. Very nice indeed.

I often wonder why we see relatively few real khukuris made "over here." (Having said that, where's the cho?)

Mike Stewart at Bark River collects khukuris and says one will appear from his shop in the months ahead. He's a real devotee of the convex edge.

That is one of my hopes that he will make some. I think the edge Bark River puts on their blades is KING :cool: My only concern is that that they make them thick enough, like 3/16 or bigger.
 
Santi used to post on our forum years ago. He was exporting Thai E-Nep knives to the states (you can probably still find a review of one versus a KH and an HI done by a fellow forumite in the archives or facts page). The E-Nep has the blade shape like you see in the link above, 'cept bigger, but the handles are simple cylindrical affairs.

I really like this one as well. It reminds me of some of the Japanese working knives in that the blade still has some forge scale left on it.
