A victory kukri made in late 1945,46 or 47 era sold to appeal to Allied soldiers on leave , dealing with the division of India {With much genocide & horror on all sides,} or enjoying R&R or just in Garrison duties after the war.

It roughly copies the style of the mk.3 issue kukri, but is clearly private purchase.

Scabbards original, just leather & probably timber were not cured well...

Probably good steel & probably well made....
