Hey guys, a while back someone posted about getting a JKM-1. It was remarked that it had some curvature that the stock photo doesn't have on the HI store sight.

I'm interested in this "Nepalese puukko", but I remember liking the one that was posted here, better than what is shown in the stock photo. Could that person please post the pic again, I couldn't find it (even with a google search).

Also, just how big is this? The HI store says it's a 6" knife, but looking at it, if the overall length is 6", the pic makes the blade look longer than the handle, so does it have a 2" handle or something?
 
One of my JKM-1s has a bend like the one pictured, and the OA length is 7 7/8" with the blade being 4 5/8 and the handle being 3 2/8"... Hope this helps.
 
Get one !! I'm pleased as can be with the one I got around x mas. The short handle mposes no problems at all.

You do realize that Spark restored the Bladeforums Search for everyone again don't you?:) Not everyone sees or reads the stickies at the top of a forum page.;) :)

I think this is the one - I posted it not long ago.
I really like the curve to it, the handle is a smaller than my hand, but it works out fine, for me.
Great knife, makes a really good EDC!
