Default Khukri - lambendh sirupate

Since we rarely see khukri here I thought I'd post one.
A lambendh sirupate (long handle siru leaf) with a 13" blade and 5" handle. The spine at the bolster is 8mm thick. POB 5" from bolster. The handle is greenish-brown horn.
The last pic is a comparison with other khukri; the bottom two are also sirupate, the middle one has a 1cm thick spine.

Hello Manolo,
Thanks for sharing your Kukri collection
The Lambendh looks a serious piece. I like it.

Cheers,

Dan
