Hello folks!
please can you help identify these two kukris?
I was told the dark handled one is mid 20th century Nepalese or Indian.
I know nothing about the bone handled one.
Thanks

Bone Handled one looks like a HI Bashpati.

Are there any symbols or engravings near the cho? either side, or both sides?

Here's mine

I blew up the bone handle one but the clarity went out the window but I think I see typical HI markings. I have no clue on the other one other than it's cool.
