So I wanted to leave some feedback on my dealings with kailash blades. Fantastic company. I have two currently. First I ordered a custom sirupate. Ten inch blade with micarta scales, standard grind. It's been amazing. Light and fast. The craftsmanship is absolutely top notch. I've had kukris for a very long time and love the versatility of them for woodcraft chores. The two from Kailash have been my favorites so far. I've owned some from the major Nepalese suppliers except Tora, witch I hear a excellent. They dont have the variety and customization available that kailash offers. Hymalayan imports is one I've had as was really disappointed with. Decent kukri but the customer service was absolutely garbage, at least in my case. I was sent a blade that was very different than what I ordered and when I contacted them about it I was told to just put in another order another one.
Anyway back to kailash. It's by far the best fit.and finish of any of the kukris I've owned. I ordered it with both the kydex and western leather sheaths. The kydex is what I prefer though the belt loop is a bit small. The western leather is a wonderful and attractive sheath and well made, I just prefer kydex on most my sheaths.
They also offer different handle materials and I went with micarta. It's some of the best micarta I've felt. The texture is just the right amount of grip for me. I live in Georgia and due to the climate here I've had kukris where the wood has shrunk over a few months, didn't want that to happen again. Another thing to mention is the handle size. I wear xl gloves and the medium handle that I got fits but is almost to small. My second one i ordered I got the large handle and it fits my hand better. They also have a great warranty but I haven't needed to use it. They are great about answering questions but keep in mind the time difference. Sometimes takes a couple days.
Hope this helps anyone considering ordering from them. You wont be disappointed
