Beautiful pieces! I really love the added detailing in the fuller of the Mutiny

First, these khukris were beautifully executed by Kailash blades and perform exquisitely. The quality of craftsmanship is outstanding. The Mutiny with 14" blade is among the lightest authentic antique-style khukri made, it is very lively and fast moving in the hand with powerful chopping and slicing capabilities and a lethal stabbing point. The slender Sirupate style blade shape makes it feel more like a big dagger than a machete like some later khukris. The Mini with 5" blade is a lovely small companion knife with razor sharp, bulbous blade perfect for skinning, slivering kindling and shaving tinder, cutting cords and rope, and general field-kitchen duties. Both are gorgeous historical-style khukris that look like they were from a Gurkha guard of some ancient Himalayan kingdom. Kailash Blades not only make very fine authentic khukris of a wide variety of styles and sizes, they are as a company delightful to deal with being courteous and friendly to a fault. The attention to detail like engraving in the fullers and beautifully carved handles of buffalo horn are truly outstanding. The forging and grinding of the blades, the handmade custom metal fittings, and the wood and leather scabbards are all top quality, displaying great pride in craftsmanship. Thank you to Andrew, Bisnu, and the whole team at Kailash Blades. Cheers!

@@kailashbladesHi Andrew, probably going to get a Mutiny from you guys at some point. Been enjoying that custom Scourge Anniversary with the Karda and Chakmak and Baak that you and Bisnu helped me work out! Love it, but on reflection probably should have gone with the Performance grind. Otherwise, no gripes. You guys did great! Even with the standard grind, it is fun to take off decent sized limbs in a whack! I may also need to resize the handle as it is a bit too big for my hand which causes extra hand fatigue when cutting. Keep up the great work my friends! I can solidly recommend your company, and just did to another channel @peterbiltknifeguy. Also did the same for @choirboyzcutleryoutdoors who does hard use testing of knives. He likes his big knives! Hope they end up taking a look and getting one of your kukris for testing! That would be awesome, and help spread the word! Sincerely, JS
