Yes, Bill, thanks for stepping up. If I may say so, you'll soon be in a perfect position to "report" on how it handles, both weight-wise, and with respect to the lanyard hole......
Does owner of HI Khukuri need to be careful about rusting? Will you leave your Khukuri in its sheath when you are not going to use it in the next two or three weeks?
You'll notice some of Yandu's DOTD (deal of the day) specials include blades with a little bit of rust. You can remove it with sandpaper or metal polish. Whether rust is a problem depends a lot on your climate too.
A quick wipe down with a green scotch pad and hot water, they usually come clean, then dried and a quick wipe down with a rag soaked in gun oil works for mine. Then back in the sheath. All but one of mine were rust free after 10 months in their sheaths while I was in Iraq. The little rust on the one came off with a rag and a dab of MAAS polishing compound.
