Here is my latest Kukri in 5160 and green canvas Micarta. I based the design off my handle design mated with the blade design of an old original Kukri I had since I was a kid. The original wears a replacement handle I made way back when. Hated to lose the original handle but it had cracked. My new Kukri is 17 7/8in OA with a 12 5/8in blade. I used 1/4in thick 5160 with a full flat grind(not easy to pull off with this shape) so it is very fast for a blade of this size. I am really happy with how it came out :D
