Hello folks like the heading mentions I'm looking for a Esse 5 with a green blade and handles or black blade and green micarta with the bow drill divot handles with the kydex sheath. The box and old logo would be nice also but might still consider a trade, must be in excellent to Nib.
The Tora Blades WW2 Officers 4/10 GR is a 35cm or close to 14" blade length with a weight of around 500-grams and is hollow forged.
It has a beautiful classic sunburst brass buttcap or Darjeeling keeper. There is a Chakmac and Karda with beautiful matching wood to the khukuri. It also has the nail chopped in half for an edge holding and durability test to specifically pass inspection included in the tender pouch in the back of the military reproduction sheath with frog included. It's light and wispy in hand compared to most heavy beast bladed khukuris. It is new unused, but I've had it for a while and has had 6 coats of tung oil on the wooden handle and the sheath has been treated with sno-seal.
This is a top-of-the-line Khukuri from Tora Blades a handmade military replica from Nelpal and over seen by Simon Hengle/owner of business, he only has authentic replicas made to his specific standards, which are quite high. You won't find a finer Khukuri made in Nepal anywhere. Just check out his khukuris on his website in the military section and also pics of this beauty. Tora blades has quite the following in top of the line fit and finish military reproductions. You won't be disappointed. This is a WW2 era reproduction used by the Gurkhas/Officers of that time. If serious, Please DM me your email and I'll send you some pics of it. At the current time there is about a 4 month wait to get one.
Thanks for looking,
