khukuri sighting

[ddean]

Flipping channels and paused on a big fight scene.

Star of the movie ("Cyborg" -- can't recall his name)

pulled out a khuk in a reverse grip

to parry an attack by a larger blade.

Varied lot of big or biggish blades in this movie.

Anthony Hopkins and Keanu Reeves used khukuris to deadly effect in Bram Stoker's Dracula.

He was the Cyborg. Khuks popup in cinema when they need a vicious looking or exotic blade. I'm surprised Indiana Jones was't equipped with one, since he was playing the intrepid explorer.
