It is khukuri not khukri in Nepali.

Hmmmmmmmm.........So tell me again why people need a fighting knife, unless you think you're Rambo.

I just refuse to pay more than $150 for a knife. Most don’t even have good sheath options to your limited or required to be wearing or have certain gear to even attach/carry it.

Only 0:26 in and looking for the affordable or economical option lol

The scallop cut has nothing to do with back cutting, it was to turn a Spanish sabre after you caught it on the guard.

Yeah they actually used for farming tools its basicly a scythe for cutting grass and some times it doesnt use a ring, i have seen a royal one which made from real elephant tusk and use laminated steel but but it used for cutting grass only 😂

Kris’s are imbued with yin energy from my understanding they shake and sense when strong negative vibrations are approaching. So much so that itll shake off the holster or if you have it in a cabinet itll bounce around like crazy just to warn you

Just as on swords the notches on the Kukri for catching a blade. Alexander of course brought the kopis to Afghanistan and India.

Blue finish is best

Dude if you ever read Geronimos autobiography. A Chirahua woman killed a grizzly bear with her butcher knife. If you study Russian history during the same era. Russian hunters were skilled at killing big brown bears with a knife like a Bowie.

Tremendous craftsmanship, inspiring music, and beautiful camerawork….and no talking!

Well, this first part is pretty good. He’s talking very intelligently about using a blade with the proper integrity and then the physical skill set. I’m pretty accurate and I wouldn’t have any argument with anything he said.

I had one in the 70s good reliable knife ! 🔪

The PR and spin of this third world pathetic beggar nation is off the scale.

I’ve always have/will EDC an assisted open knife without issue or unintended deployment. I have many of both manual & assisted but I only leave home assisted.

Does Mr. Janich offer classes?

Thanks🙏🙏👍🏻

my whole life ive grown up with my family members telling me we are related to james bowie

Can you still get original stamped bowie

This is weapone form indonesia tribe minang kabau

Deltarune fans of all ages: 😮

Not gonna lie, I first heard of the kukri while reading Dracula. I looked it up and thought it was so cool that I've been obsessed ever since

Yeah I almost killed a guy 30yrs ago in self defense , tell him that line. Them knives are no joke ! I talked to WW2 GIs they didn't have them for a novelty item.

Sir, are there any advantages to blades with bellies/curvature for defensive situations? Also, how do you feel about spear points?

This would be a great blade for self defence against an a wild animal.

its to stop the blood getting down to the handle, it drips off the point....

What if it’s already started to rust at spots?

Even new I never had my blade stick, and I liked the material the scales were made from, I had the Mel Pardue sheepsfoot which was 154cm, one of my favorite EDC knives ever!

You stated the blade is stainless, it is 1095 carbon steel.

Thank you. Your research, knowledge and delivery is perfect. I am learning so much from your Channel. (Ex - Sgt RRhAF)

I HAD ONE A THEM OTF KNOFES IN MA POCKET ONE TIME ND IT WENT OFF IN MA POCKET AND CUT MA COCK PLUM OFF ON ACCIDENT GOBBLESS

I have the unmarked KABAR, it's an awesome knife.

The best Bowie knive is the Natchez Bowie made by cold steel .they stop making it .Great fight knive.

I thought the notch was a break point for liquids so they create a drop there instead of running down the hand and impacting the grip, but now I'm wondering if I was lied to.

I had the Gerber fast 06 for over 2 years until someone still it recently,anyway even having the safety on I was OCD with that,however it would open in my pocket often,I kept it clean tighted with the star bit,all of the common maintenance however it would open in my pocket a good 5 times a month gor quite a few Knicks

Interestling the design in almost identical to some British 18th century officers hangers, the deaign didn't really go away

It’s a modern version of a ancient Greek Kopis

This was a great introduction to leather knives. Thanks.

I cooked a fish on that cheap ass Timber(something) one.

Very nice presentation, indeed.

The originals biggest problem: It was a specialized piece of equipment issued to soldiers, who will in short order find 8 or 10 other uses. A classic example is the old "Steel pot" helmet. I was around when they started switching over, and a lot of GIs weren't happy because they used them for digging, cooking food in, and other things.

I've purchased 2 that were made in Nepal by a company called KHHI, good stuff!

When you deliver a hard blow on a human being, there is a definite danger that you might barf. I sure would.

the name balisong itself is filipino, Bali as in folding and song from sungay or horn, original balisong handles are made from carabao horns, Filipinos have no contacts with the French long ago neither the Spanish introduced it to the filipinos when they are even forbidden to carry weapon, and that's how arnis using sticks in replace of swords developed

I have no use for one of these and I want one so bad.

Enjoyed the content - please find something else to do with your hands, it's irritating as hell!

I have an old Italian stiletto I don’t carry it for protection that’s what my gun is for

Worst short ever. Complete ignorance and stupidity

The knife looks very nice. But for defense purposes, it appears as if it could accidentally close on the hand in a defense situation.
