Nice pics!

What's the story with the handle of the khuk in the 5th and 6th pics though? Looks like some weird James Bond tuxedo model or something...

I like the looks of the last one the best though!

Thanks Spialtwista , Just a novice so have trouble sorting out whats what. John Powell has been of grat help , Saw a very nice Khukuri yesterday at a friends house , it came originally from a Gurkha Col.
it had a handle made of wood , with what appeared to be copper wire in-laid very nice it appeared to me to be a pretty old piece , but I sure am only guessing. thanks again for the nice words. Rod

Rod,
Thankyou for the kind remark. It is appreciated since I know what you had to go through to get some of those kukris.
