What still amazes me about the H.I. kukri's is the quality they turn out with what little they have to work with. For something that was made from a truck leaf spring they sure got it right. Even the way they heat treat the blade, its hard where it needs to be and soft where it  needs to be tough.  Ive beat on this thing pretty hard and havent even really scratched the blade.

As you can see they are all in need of some attention  ::)

I like the little one, the second from the left, with the little carabiner...

Nah, tbh I really prefer new to used, as I like to know just how much use and abuse they've had before I play with them :)

Did look the part though :)
