Great grandads Kukris

[Seaside70]

Hello all

New to the Forum. I am researching family military history & part of this has recently included researching Great Grandads Kukris that he returned from the Western front with WW1

I have threads on two other forums

http://www.ikrhs.com/

And

http://1914-1918.invisionzone.com/forums/index.php?

I cannot post attatchments in this Forum so To save a bit of time anyone registered as a member can see these threads under the title of Great Grandads Kukris.

I am after as much info as can be found by those ITK around the world.

The threads include a full spec & many pics to view at your leisure. As i say ANY info at all is better than none

Regards

Bob

Posted here for convenience...Spiral has already responded on the other forum of course. We may be able to piggyback their bandwidth for a while anyway.

Thanks Nasty.

I wonder if we will ever see something like "That khukuri was made by Bura when he was a rebel teen".

 

[Nasty]

It probably exists somewhere, eh?

Happy to oblige. More pics posted in new threads for those interested in a fascinating bit of family history, and a couple of very nice old kukris. So rare to find an oldie with a provenance that goes back more than a few years, usually to a dead end at some dealer.

Thank you Sir...I'll give this a day or so and then remove the links.

If the links to http://www.ikrhs.com/ help draw the right kind of attention, it will have been worthwhile.
