I agree with Guyon, a Khukuri is a tool pure and simple. It's like owning a firearm (another tool) just because I have one doesn't mean I have to prove it works by killing someone with it.
Yes , they all work as weapons, Meat is softer than wood after all. Just ask the Nepali Police!
Old officers quality ones are usualy pure weapon not tool. {They had others cut thier firewood & paths.}

I recall reading (but I don't know where, maybe here) that Ghurkas in WWII were using the khuks provided by the army as tools, and kept the ones made by their local kamis for when their lives depended on it.
