Falcata have a massive heel on them (for blade silhouette this is pretty much what distinguishes them for either a khukuri or kopis). They usually have a lot of fuller work as well (a lot more then you tend to see on a kopis and of a different style then you will see on most khukuri). And that is because they are typically much thicker blades (assuming you put a Falcata and a Kopis of the same length, curvatures, and width side by side... It's likely the falcata will be significantly thicker). And the handles are of a fixed non-simplistic style (for the most part. especially if your talking about traditional). So you would have to add a lot of new features on after taking away what was expressed here to get it looking like a falcata. But a khukuri with just the features listed taken away, is pretty much a Kopis.Or falcata?
