Does Ethan know about this?

Lol.
They probably saw the BK21, a Becker version of a Kukri and thought that's justification to now use his name on one of their knives.

Well, I know which one I'd prefer and it's not the rust free (until it rusts) carbon steel from Nepal Kukri House.

If I remember correctly some Nepali kukri house also tried to rip off designs from our very own BF Himalayan Imports.

Either way they aren't real competion for Kabar or Mr. Becker and I bet the whole thing is seen more amusing than anything else.

copying is par for the course for a lot of those import houses.

even HI has had a few "ahem" moments.

then we have Boker, and some enterprising chinese/taiwan outfit, and ...

not to mention domestic outfits that make a little of the copy copy
 
in the original Red Dawn - they mentioned the famed american youth paramilitary program called "Eagle Scouts".......
 
Ya, but, I got kicked outta Cub Scouts..... LOL.......

Hey Mkabar...... They did a helluva job!!,!!!.... That may explain a bunch of things.......

Hey Zeig...

First, many thanks for picking up on this and for the alert..... You and Bladite were on it!........

I think you may be on to something...... The paramilitary uniforms must have been disguised under the chef's whites!!!!.....LOL?... E
 
A total rip-off job, but I do like their explanation of the different points of the knife and the RC levels, would be nice if some did this too. But funny none the less.

Ethan may have been a Ghurkha but perhaps dumped with his memory erased once they discovered he is over 5'4" tall 😀
