AAAAhhhh Thats a rather famous old one.

Id love to examine it sometime.

Thanks for sharing, JP & Berk.

I don't know what the proper term is, but the "habaki" on this one looks like the ones on Turkish Yataghans, don't you think?

Very beautiful, BTW
 
Its koftgari on the blade rather than a habaki, I know what you mean though.

They chisel patterns into the steel then hammer gold & silvery into them as inlay.

Its {this kukri.} written up in Lord Eggertons book. It is an unusual piece.
