  • OK Khukri Gurus....help me sift...

    Best kukri out there? IYO?

    Anyone have experience with Tora, Cold Steel, or the Brigade Quartermaster kukris?

    Thanks,
    DB

    My Cold Steel has chopped everything from Pine, to Oak, to bone. It has held up well with heavy use, and I mean heavy! I've used it to clear limbs for hunting stands, make kindling for fires, butchering deer and a couple wild hogs. If any of the others you mentioned are any better, they would be worth a fortune, indeed. Its the most useful blade I own, I never fool with machetes or hatchets since I bought mine.

      Look at Himilayan Imports for authentic and high quality Kuhkri.

        I'VE beat the crap out of my Cold Steel cutting off Carobou legs, tree limbs and just about everything you wish you had an axe for but didn't.

        THEN

        Spent a little time with a stone and it came back to arm hair razoring sharp.

        I built out the grip with paracord to have it handy and it didn't disturb the balance or feel.

        It would be a very good choice.

            I have a 'tourist' and an original Khukri and both are good. One from a yard sale and another via the 'net.

                He had to get a court order to dig this one up.

                  It should be noted. I'd rather see someone bring an old thread back than ask the same question again in a new one.

                  At least they looked through the old stuff first.

                  We've covered a lot of ground here already. If someone wants to find out if there has been any more insight since the last thread faded out, I'm good.
