Perhaps I was wrong to use the word arms... Thy are for scribes after all.
I just should have said their virtualy non functional...
Paper weights, wall hangers {art} & letter openers not withstanding.
But each to their own.
full size Cast brass kukris copied from originals turn up on ebay & auctions sometimes, there good cast renditions.... They usually reach about $15.
In my youth I worked in a foundry... I could have copy cast hundreds of such items every day....Pihas, kuks whatever....
So to me they don't have much allure, other than any history attached.
The genuine featured Piha is a nice example of an ethnographic arm though... woops.. I mean an ethnographic & functional tool..
