Indian Kukri set





This is a nice looking Kukri set; a bargain I made on a flea market. The knives are intended just for show, but I guess the bigger one could deliver quite a decent chopping blow if sharpened and used in the field. You can really make good deals on these type of knives in some market places. But bare in mind that many of these kukris are just souvenirs.
