you can judge the size by the angkhola which just over 20 inches long
 
Very nice! Thanks for sharing :) I think the horn-handle one might be a Chainpuri instead of a Chitlangi, what do you think, fellas???

Looks like a chainpuri to me. I've only become familiar with the look of 'em since ogling the one put up for Uncle Bill's birthday till it was bought up! :o

Yes, it is the Chainpuri.
Like the one sold in this DOTD.

Another Chainpuri for sure... I was lucky and got the one Karda linked to, but it is awaiting some travelling companions before been shipped! :cool:

Have to say the wood handle on the larger Chainpuri's were most eye-catching and their weight/length ratio seemed perfect too!:thumbup:
 
Hi lal chatri, what's the size of that Chainpuri? I have a 20" wood-handle one headed my way. BTW, seems like you got a Chainpuri khukuri with a Chitlangi-style scabbard, the one with the pronounced spine on the front. I've pretty much seen these only on Chits. Cool. I like all the handels on your khuks, esp. the one on the Attitude.
 
well guys after looking at the pic a chainpuri it most deffinatley it is
handle is horn with white streaks running through it makes it look like italian marble real nice overall lenght is 19 inches now the chakmak and karda are a different design from the norm here's the pics it dose handle like a dream
light fast and probably deadly in the right hands
