Mystery Kukri

[Montino Bourbon]

I found this at a swap meet here. No scabbard. There are letters and numbers on the blade, but very faint and hard to see; what looks like 'LI' followed by a possible '88' and an upside-down 'T' followed by a 'broad arrow' and a possible 'B' or 'D'. I may be reading these inscriptions upside down. As you can see, the tang is full width to an integral butt cap. Any info appreciated.
