Nix the Blisters

I, too, would like to see this video, or at least a more in-depth discussion of the technique. I have been trying to figure out what the best way to carry and draw a khukri is. I mean, same side or crossdraw, behind the back, etc etc etc? How do the gurkhas in the British Army carry, anyway?

Cheerio,
Mike

Hello Mike
If you look at the pics you will see they carry on the belt by the frog over the back pocket approx.
I really don't know how the Gurkhas draw because I have never seen it,but I can draw from different positions with out cutting my scabard or removing a part of my body.

Rather than ask for an elaboration, I'll try to look at the pics and figure it out for myself (then after I lop off a finger or three, I'll ask for help. 'tis the male way).
