Dui Chirra vs Tin Chirra

Namaste to all,

I recall vaguely that there was some discussion a while ago on what a Tin chirra blade looked like(also see Howard's Khukuri FAQ) for pix, but I have heard of a "Dui Chirra". How does this compare to a Tin chirra and which is the better blade?

Thanks in advance for your replies.

Harry, we could call an Ang Khola a dui chirra and be pretty close. Two groove vs three groove. The tin chirra might be slightly stronger and heavier than the ang khola.
