Badass and worth the wait!
Pictures don’t do this kukri justice! This is a very nice handmade blade! I love the fact that it is hand made and the knife has imperfections, it’s nice to know people are working hard to make a nice blade and not letting a machine do everything. Well done! Im very happy with my purchase!
