Ghurka Khukuris

[tangstamp]

With all the miles of information, I haven't found yet where's the best place to buy a genuine khukuri. I've read allusions to it, but I am not familiar with the abbreviations. Will somebody tollerate a new person interested in khukuris and help me find the best deal on the real mccoy? You guys seem to be the authorities. I look forward to owning this bad boy. Thanks for your help and patience.

Tangstamp,

Head on over to the Gurkha House Forum and then stop by the GH Website. Should be plenty of mind candy for a prospective Khukuri addict.

See you there.

And you should check out the Himalayan Imports Forum here on BladeForums in the Makers/Manufacturers section.
They have a few models that may suit your needs.

Also check out the Khukuri FAQ at:
http://www.tx3.net/~howardw/Khukuris/KhukuriFAQ.htm

It will give you a good grounding in what khukuris are all about.

Ok, I've seen Ghurka House, but I'm afraid I can't find much about the models HI offers. What am I missing? Thanks for the great advice!!!

You guys have been terrific!!! Thanks for all the great info and advice. I've seen some great knives and I think I've made my choice. I'm bustin' at the seams to get my hands on this knife. I've even saved a large patch of brush to be cleared. I'm a lean, mean, slashin' machine!!! Better give me room!!!

Check Out Himalayan imports and if you don't see what you are looking for then give uncle Bill a call he is a super nice guy and should be able to help you find that special Khukuri.
