Questions About a Curious Kukri

Thank you one and all.
I personally don't feel that a sword or knife has to be of premier quality or have been owned by a Sultan, maharaja or a Datu to be worthy of discussion, often exactly the opposite, with the "poorer" blades being the ones carried by the warriors and average tribesman that won or lost the conflicts.
I have leads to follow forever in this area now and a LOT more reading to do and appreciation to build.
Again, my sincere and humble thanks.
Mike
