Here's an ugly little village model. They tried to spruce it up at BirGorkha but wasted their time. 11.5 inches and 10 ounces. Partial tang. Tough blade at about 60 Rc. Fold line visible on right side of blade. Part of bolster missing. Nice rosewood handle. Karda missing but that doesn't matter -- no good anyway. Scabbard pretty good but small hole near the top. Frog riveted and far from the 100 year HI superfrog.

If they hadn't polished up the blade this would have been a true village model.

Take it for $25. It'll do some work and make you appreciate the HI khukuris more. I don't want to guarantee this one but will anyway. It'll probably hold together.

How's that for a super sales pitch?

Call or email.

I bet I would have taken it too, then saw it was gone.
Lawn & garden, kitchen maybe.
