Had a dream last night about hammering out a khukuri so I got to wondering
Has anyone here ever actually made a khukuri?
Either by forging or by stock removal. Seems like a neat project to try sometime. A good piece of steel and a lot of careful grinding should give a big useful knife. Don't know about zone hardening like the pros do it but could probably edge harden like Wayne Goddard does.
Anyway, it would be a learning experience. What do you think?
