Nepalese Kukri

[Doogs]

Love your method of rebuttal Neiiau!

Edited to remove some rather vitriolic comments. Not much point when corrected by two different people and still in disagreement.
Must be from Manchester.

OK, I'll defer to A G Russel on that one.

However, most blades have a notch cut into them just before the choil and like every thing usually have a name and it is commonly referred to as a choil.

I only threw in the "Blood grove" as another common myth re: blades and blood.

I haven't really cut off anyone's head but in my younger days worked in abattoirs and have butchered animals for food.

Been a good discussion....enjoyed it.

Thanks.

The limbs I have hacked off have been from gingerbread men, and never used the kukuri for that job.
