LOL! I wish I owned that one. It was on ebay, seller was muskeen. Britain. Sold for $700. I bid $650 and lost. Kicking myself still.

What ferguson said. Wow.

I don't think you could get a new Wootz Steel khukuri for that little. Sigh, it is beautiful!

I posted that great old budhume with the "pools and eyes" damascus pattern before, but here are a few more with "watered" steel. The middle piece is mechanical damascus and from around 1870. Sorry for the poor photos...it's really hard to capture the subtle patterns.

Wow! Those are nice. Love the engraving on the middle one.
