Actually it is not the kukris which are fearsome, it is the person who wields it. The persona surrounding the deadly kukri comes from Gukhas who are world famous as fighting men.
Even the Japanese soldiers in Malaya during the World War II were afraid of them. For the Japanese soldiers, beheading was more or less a ceremonial exercise. For the Gukhas, it was an obligatory act during hand-to-hand combat.
