A very nice kukri Rick, I would say a post WWI and a pre-WWII military kukri, although hollow forged military issue kukri were definately in use in WWII, but the decoration grooves look pre-WWII.
I would certainley agree with scratch that it is not a sirupate style, I will post what a lot of collectors would consider a WWII sirupate style a bit later.
I also doubt it is made of Shear steel, and it was probably made somewhere in pre-partition India, either by an IA contractor, or in some cases by the Regimental kami themselves.
Another nice kukri Scratch
WWII style sirupate (although slightly to angled and broad to be a true sirupate shape)
