As usual, I am seeing a lot of "Simon Says" and not a lot of evidence to back it up.

So you didn't supply them. You sent some freebies and some Gurkhas bought some privately. Very VERY different!!

Images attached, showing these kukri in use by gurkhas during WW2.
(You really need some more synonyms for the word "Fanciful")

It is quite clearly dated two years before you allege to have created it.

Once again answers in brackets and in bold, to these rather stupid and childish nitpickings

(Again twisting my words lol)

(Again your observations are very poor at best, no Mk2 or Mk3 kukri in those pictures, once again you are simply showing yourself up!)

(Lol, really fanciful, even my wife recognised it, she was with me in 2003 when I discussed with Tilak about the design)

It seems a shame that your sole object in life is to try and have a go at me, and yet at every turn you are proven wrong, infact you sound more and more like another person we both know, I'm beginning to think your his twin! lol

Anyway I have had enough of proving you wrong yet again, so this is my last comment on this thread, relax have a glass of red wine and chill out, the very best Simon

I couldn't really care less about you, but when you post nonsense about the subject I care about, somebody has to try and correct you...but I haven't seen you prove me wrong yet.

Unlike you, I am happy to be proven wrong if it furthers our collective knowledge, whereas you don't seem too keen on losing face. A shame really, if we could find common ground we might be able to learn more about the subject we are both interested in.

The most sensible thing you've said in the whole thread...
