knivesRus "Civilian Khukuris"...

The ferrule's & fittings are of bronze? Interesting closed cho on the picture......and a brass inlay like on a sirupate....makes we kind of wonder too....but I'm no expert

Yes, tourist model. I've seen them before. Similar to the balance model by HI. Had no idea 888knivesrus was carrying them too. Definitely brass, not bronze.

Decent sized karda/chakma actually....

Very unfortunate picture, though. Looks like the tip is missing.

Don't be concerned, Aardvark. "A broken tip on the blade that will never go anywhere got it into the blem box." :D

The tip was there, we just lightened the picture so that the handle and fittings showed clearly. Should have used a more significant shadow so the tip would have had contrast.

I'm not so sure, the carving on the handle looks to be well done as do the fittings. The engraving on the blade looks a little rough, but the shape is nice and it looks convexed. I think Thomas is correct and as such it's probably a user.
