Hope this is ok to post a pic of here ...mods move it if not.
Just thought you might like to see the blade I just finished because it has somewhat of a Khukri influence.
It is not a Khukri by any stretch but I just love the style overall and try to incorporate it whenever it fits.

"Death Merchant"
What can I say the name just seemed to fit:eek:
Specs:
13" OAL Done in 1/4" S5 Shock Steel(Check testing gallery for S5 pics) Flat grind G10 scales Nickle Silver Tubular pins Balance at the index finger Blade is 7 3/8" tip to front of scales Feels lighter than it actually is and moves well in the hand. Balance makes it feel like an extension of your hand instead of something you are just holding on to. Hope that makes sense:}


Enjoy:D

Will hate to see this one go as it sits on the computer desk I feel compeled to pic it up every few minutes and play with it:D
Just a flat nasty/scary piece of striped steel...I love it
 
Interesting stuff, and thanks.

I figure if you changed the name to say... um..

The Flower Wholesaler, you'd be able to take it to the opera. ;) :)

Sorta looks like a scimitar too.
