Dis my Condor Heavy Duty Kukri.
Very useful for splitting wood and branching pine boughs.
Hunter Reed
Been thinking about buying this one.
Anyone have any experience with it?
Ryder Anderson
I only have a Kukri-shaped machete.
I'm not a real Jow Forumsu/k/ri owner like y'all.
But it sure does chop down small tree-like growths.
Jonathan Hughes
That counts as a Kukri.
Caleb Hernandez
Unlikely to be bad, by any means. I'd go for it.
Alexander Collins
Have that exact 1 the sheath sucks but I like it otherwise.
Wyatt Clark
Jackson Lee
Do you ever really use one of the little knives to sharpen it or just a real whetstone?
Dominic Flores
What's so bad about the sheath? Looks like decent leather, or at least convincing faux leather.
Dylan Stewart
Mines beatin to absolute shit and still going strong
Jose Stewart
Does anyone have experience with Tora blades? Are they worth the wait?
Wyatt Garcia
Joseph Anderson
Clean ya blade!

Typically they dont "pass them down", but just make new ones on their own. Kukris are buried with their owners/makers.
I think

They got good polish main

I really want a Kukri House Scourge. But it is pretty impractical. Way to thick and heavy to ever carry long term etc. I just love the look and how it is a mashup of a kukri and a bowie.
Nicholas Cox
Asher Davis
Eh, two + pounds for a kukri plus sheath isn't too ridiculous.
The price is though.
Elijah Bell
I like it more than any of my other blades. Bought it off of a now deceased friend for $30 CAD.
Hunter Gonzalez
What's a decent quality kukri that's not inordinately expensive?
Ryan Gomez
OP here, my Condor cost me $80.
Parker Morgan
Here’s mine, the real deal from IMA. I need a patch knife though.
Ian Kelly
Nonsense, everyone knows that the Kukri is the ultimate perfect do-it-all knife.
Samuel Nguyen
No I mean I literally need a patch knife to fill the empty mini-sheath attached to the big kukri sheath
lol
Aaron Ramirez
I looked hard into the real-deal, top-dollar ones and settled on the $80 Condor. The legit ones are too big and heavy and thick to be practical for me.
Zachary Collins
The Condor is almost two pounds.
Still pretty hefty. I should point out that I got it for a good price, generally the Condor heavy dutys are 100+
Zachary Bailey
Kukri has curved down blades. This looks like an kind of chopper
Aaron Stewart
The Condor is almost 2 lbs. Should also point out that I got it cheap. Usually they're closer to 100
Landon Rogers
he might be alive today if you had offered like $45 at least
William Brown
How is khukuri house? Been looking at their models. Im jyst gonna buy one so I want it to be top dollar. Are there better ones?
Eli Walker
Got an old beat-up one 20 years ago as a birthday present, looks like one of the IMA ones
Never thought to take pic of it, sorry.
Justin Richardson
>owning a meme knife
Noah Nelson
Took some pics
Isaac Edwards
I noticed it has an arrow and INDIA on it. Does this mean by chance it was military issue there or is the broad arrow strictly a British thing?
Elijah Martinez
>knife
Owen Diaz
That means it was made in India
Jose Murphy
Well shit
Gavin Williams
Kukri house are kinda memes, but decent. They're kinda like the macs of the kukri world, everyone wants one because they're supposed to be super nice, but they're really just sorta meh.
They'll chop stuff though.
I'd recommend Himalayan imports if you want a nice, genuine Gurkha kukri, Cold Steel or Condor for something less pricey and handmade but just as fun tional.
Aaron Bennett
one of them is actually a strop. it's purpose is for rolling the edge back into a straight form.
Sebastian Jones
The leather is so hard there was no way to attach it to a belt attempting to caused the leather to crack
Michael Thompson
i got an ontario kukri and a cold steel magnum kukri machete
Blake Adams
Pics nigger
Chase Robinson
Well that's fucking dumb.
Shouldn't be too hard to make a new one, or maybe soften the leather..
OR, maybe we're going about it wrong. The gurkhas dont hang their kukris on their belt but rather tuck it, sheath and all, snugly in a sort of sash.
John Howard
Is it held differently?
Parker Richardson
>yfw you think you're a knife king when I can just shoot you in your fat face
Jonathan Johnson
Nah. A new kukri owner might be surprised by the force a swing can generate, but it's not so much that you need to radically change your grip
Hudson Ramirez
>blocks your path
James Bell
Correct me if I'm wrong, but is it just the angle being more aggressive/forward that the cutting action of the blade has to happen more rapidly?
