Makes you wonder about the accuracy of research and reporting when they say, "the(khukri)must draw blood every time it is unsheathed".
 
It was also quite incomplete. They didn't didn't say anything about the all-important "torture knives." ;)

I seem to think I once heard that "draw blood" hooey about Samurai swords, too. I guess, though, if you're going to repeat an incorrect story, you might as well repeat it incorrectly.

Google news alert has reported
