Bladed looked fantastic, until further inspection...Blade has 1  " crack down back of blade. Hasnt even cut a piece of paper yet.. Was expecting a quality hand forged blade and that is not what I recived.

The sword was packaged in a nice secure way with Styrofoam spacers holding it in the center of the box. It arrived in three days from Kentucky. I did a fair amount of research on this sword and I must say that it exceeds my expectations of what 100.00 dollars could buy. When I unboxed the sword the workmanship was outstanding, not flawless in a machine made way but beautiful in the way a handcrafted sword is made. The sword is forged on power hammers and made of modern 1060 steel but the finish looks like it was done by hand. The Hamon line from the clay tempering is clearly visible though I may try to darken it some with vinegar later. I intend to test it's cutting power to see if it's a looker or a fighter. The edge was nearly shaving sharp when it arrived so I touched it up just a little bit. The sword shows a nice hardness to the edge with only a very small curl or wire when sharpening on a diamond rod. This was proven by inspection under a lighted magnifying glass. In my opinion this was money well spent. I am really impressed and I may buy another one. I know it's made in China and not Japan and it's not hard forged and folded 200 times. But it doesn't cost 10,000 dollars either. I will adjust the score when I test it for cutting power and edge retention.

From the front of the chuck to the back of the handle it's 11".  I've only drilled 1/4" holes in cement and this drill has plenty of power.  Feels very solid.

It is sturdy and carefully handmade.  The finish is multi-layered rustic but nice & smooth.  This is no made-in-china junk.  It is a great (& handy) piece,

Approximately an inch long. it had strong color with no cracks or fizzures.  Polishing was well done.  It fits easily to hand.

As another reviewer noted this item is 11" in total length, not 11" in sharpening steel. The steel is actually 7 1/4".

Now this is a very nice , simple, charming , handmade  folding knife!! It actually got from Japan to hawaii ,in under 3wks, i believe. i thought it was going to take much longer. Let me caution you, it is stiff on opening, and IT IS VERY SHARP!! so be careful. it will be a unique knife to add to my collection, and im very happy with the quality and craftmanship of this item. The Japanese really do make very fine blades! HW

This was a gift for someone, the person felt in love inmediately with it.  Its a hand craft  made with the hands and the mouth, that by itself makes it special.

My honey purchased this to go with the Kukri he also bought.  It works so well he's been busy sharpening all of our knives with it. The tapered edge all around it really helps to keep your finger tips well out of the way of the blade.

Intimidating but practical ...
The kukhri is of excellent quality, very well finished, excellent balance , plus ergonomic handle is perfect for medium to large hands.

You can cut wooden logs along the classic of a knife. Also, the small knife is useful for everyday things like peeling fruit, among others.

By its sheer size is daunting and its edge can cut a finger mercilessly. For this we must be careful in its use.

ONLY IF YOU LIVE IN CHILE ! If you live in Chile ... you 'll have to do a few advance arrangements for it to arrive to you . There is a law ( 18,356 ) regulating the import of weapons for martial arts in Chile .... then you have to go to make a certificate DGMN additional import ($ 12,600) . This you get it instantly , and the manager very friendly. I do not know whether Customs is always so tough but I had to do. I also found out that if you want to use transporting an additional certificate ($ 4600) .

Finally, I am happy with my Kukhi !

Love this badass!  Mine is a purple-blue metallic finish on the handle.  Super smooth action is addictive for flicking open and close.  Love it.  A bit smooth so I plan to put some griptape on it.

This is an absolutely beautiful blade. Full tang construction, nice shape to the wood handle. Interesting rawhide sheath with two bonus smaller blades almost like little kukri pen knifes.

The kukri itself is impressive. This is a solid piece of steel. At the heaviest part of the spine it has to be at least a 1/4" thick if not thicker. It tapers down to the butt where there is a hole for a lanyard if you choose to add one and down to the point of the blade. The grind is nice, all the details are well made, and the edge comes nicely sharpened. Literally and figuratively, this thing is a killer. Not much is standing in front of you with this thing in your hand.

I really like the compact size and the beauty of this knife.  This is one of DKC's more beautiful combinations of beautiful Damascus steel blade, white horn handle and brass accents.  The blade locked up nice and tight and the knife is very well made.  There was a very slight gap between one bone handle and the brass accent, but very minimal and not surprising in a handmade knife.  These knives are special because you are not buying mass produced crap, but a handmade piece of quality made steel and parts to make a beautiful functional and collectible knife.  It would look great on display as well as in your hand while using it.  I think one of the extra touches I enjoy is getting a heavy duty quality leather sheath - so many times I've bought knives that either had no sheath or a real piece of junk that was completely worthless.  I received a discount for an honest review and I'm glad to include this knife in my collection.
