A very nice kukri there, probably around the WWII period maybe post WWII, the decoration by the spine before the curve down looks typical Nepali, the other decoration doesn't look Nepali at all, and may have been added later?
41cm blade size is not an unusual carry size in the hills of Nepal pre-land reforms.
