OK, let's hear it from the collectors

My favorite khukuri? The 22" Kobra, made by Bura from new stock 5160, with wood handle and brass furniture. It is somewhere in between a short sword and a long knife. It is light, very nicely balanced, very sharp and a joy to cut/chop with. It is more of a martial arts type weapon than a work tool though, so even though it is my favorite, I wouldn't take it out chopping down small trees and the like - that's a job for my CS khukuri.
 
My favorite is my Shop 1 16.5" WWII. It was my first HI and I've used quite alot (though my 21 3/4" GRS is proving itself very useful at large tasks). ;)
