Hi Simon, Yes, "kukri of mystery" will do.
I had no thought whatsoever of it being carried by an officer, just trying to figure how it came to Guernsey.... and some officers do retire there....it'd only take one!
Personally, I think it quite likely that it was purchased as a momento In Guernsey by a visitor, and marked accordingly.
This doesn't answer how it Got there though!.....ebay purchase maybe?
