Khukuri Fullers

yes, it's so secret they do not publish the addendum or allow it to be published. at 3-4 thousand khukuris per minute and with all of them circling looking for victims (thank god they were fitted wit IFF systems) they were considered WMD that overshadow even tactical fusion hand grenades. i do hear that the US may be working on an unmanned drone model tho, justincase.
 
I heard there was some research into a nuclear version, steam powered is so yesterday.

I'm sure it continues just on a super secret sew your lips shut type of program.
 
Chos are an arrow rest. Why would a Kukri be curved like a bow and come with a string in every triangle box?
To shoot arrows of course.


Maybe similar to the pumpkin carving thread last year, for April Fools day we can have a competition of who can trick out his Kukri the most.
 
According to John Powell, in Nepal the so-called "Sword of Shiva" is not associated with Shiva, and is actually called by other names, such as 'finger of strength/force/energy'.

"... a 'Sword of Shiva' (on the HI forum & Khukuri FAQ), is not called by this name in Nepal. Terms used include: 'pwankh (the 'feather'), rato karang ('red rib'...from when they used lac to highlight a design rather than using a real fuller), aunlo bal ('finger of strength/force/energy') and others I couldn't even get them to translate' (J. Powell, personal communication)."
