Thanks very much for the info on this kukri! :) I think I'll print out the names/descriptions you've given me and hang the knife on the garage wall.

Nope, no markings anywhere. From some research it seems it is an old Indian Kukri, rather than a Nepalese one. The small versions are to be used as a pen knife ‘sort of’ (the sharp one) and the blunt...
Hi all,
I recently found this kukri when going through my grandfather's stuff. I don't know anything about it; looks a bit "touristy" but it must be quite old (as he died before I was born).
No...
I have had a nostalgic period, and so dug out some of my uncles old knives. Two of my favourite below; the Frosts Laminated is now my go-to hunting knife; the edge it holds is just unreal, and it's...
What XR500 says, plus 4x MaxTrax. I use the MaxTrax to get myself out, and my winch is generally to get others out. Maxtrax are brilliant things.

Thanks guys for all the welcomes. It's nice to see a few locals up here - I'm quite new in Auckland to yet find anywhere to shoot locally. Even after 25 years away in the UK I can still wander around...
Hi All,

I grew up on a farm in Otago, shooting bunnies, pigs, goats, and...
