The story behind this knife;

I got this Kukri from a friend of mine Gary Little who is a custom knife maker. He has a friend who is close to 90 yrs old and he was helping him clean out his barn when they came upon this Kukri in a box. For helping him clean the barn out he gave Gary the knife. He brought it back from Burma where he was a soldier in the US Army during WWll. That"s about all I know about the origin of the knife. It looks to be hammer forged with the hammer marks in the blade. It is 18 inches in length and the blade is 1/4 inch thick and has for sure been used and is very old. Sure would hate to be on the receiving end of one of these.:D

Asking; $75.00 which includes free shipping in the USA. Pay pal will work for payment at R2D2Fly@charter.net Thanks for looking and if anyone might have any info on the knife comments are always welcome;)

After doing a little research and receiving a couple of PM"s about the knife I have reduced the price to $75.00 which I think is fair. These Kukri"s were built from the late 1920"s to the late 1970"s for the tourist. Many were purchased by US service personnel during WWll. I did take the knife out and really chopped a few good sized limbs to see if it would stay together and it did a number on the limbs without coming apart. Anyway we learn something new every day and the price of $75.00 still includes free shipping in the USA. Thanks for looking and thanks again for the PM"s with the knife info.
