What a blade! Absolutly gorgeous! This is my second Khukri from Uncle Bill. The first was a 18" WW2,I bought 4 years ago. The WW2 has been a user,it has done every thing from chopping wood to decapitating chickens and small game animals.The Khuk still looks great and I wouldn't part with it for anything. The Sirupati is a different story.The only thing this blade will ever cut is air. I was suprised that the pattern in the blade has some brass inlay. I thought about getting the 30" model I'm glad I didn't now.The 25" version makes my WW2 seem small.
I have a couple of questions,what is marks on the right side of the blade? I thought it was the initials for Himalayan Imports but they are different on the blades. On the left side of the Suripati,just in front of the Cho is a crecent moon laying on it's side.Is this the mark of the Kami? if so who? Also what is the leather thong at the top of the belt loop for? Trying to get through the FAQ but haven't got to these questions yet.
