Full convex grind

[Astrodada]

Sorry for the silly question. But is there a full convex grind, from spine to edge,for a khukri ? Given the strong and tough rep for the khuks ?

I think maybe with the very wide belly of the khuk the full convex may not be appropriete. But...

Personally I think the new Sher attitude model is the perfect testing ground for this little idea.

I believe full convex grind holding the spine thickness constant would improve penetration and add cost. Don't know of any currently made that way.

Yes I think you are right. But a khuk has a recurve, so actually a khuk shall be better if spine flares out to bigger thickness towards the tip will achieve that much more of a 'push cut' effect that not only chops but actually push itself out of a wedge. A BGRS ! With a full convex.
