Sir, I can tell by the blades in the background, you're an aficionado of edged weapons--I was hoping to see tests on more than weeds and a small branch. The cheapest quality blade can match that performance. I'm truly interested in one of these Kukris, but am hearing reviews of blades snapping at the tang/handle point. I'd welcome seeing a a "Forged in Fire" type strength test prior to paying the respectable $$ for such a blade. Thanks!!
Sad to say after seeing the Tanto version snap at the tang scarily easily, I just trust Honshu's anymore
Very informative and nice video, the machete too, hehe.
Awesome, I own the Honshu Boshin Toothpick.
Very beautiful. How many centimeters is the blade length? How many centimeters is the blade width?
How did you get it without the writing on the blade ... I don't like writing oj blades
Thanks for this video
why would they put four holes thru the narrowest part of the blade by the base? That has to weaken it as opposed to it being solid. Makes no sense.
I like the Honshu line! I have a couple! #22aday!
I have three different Honshou myself.
it will also make an intimidating self defence gear.
You scared the goats. LOL!

Not a "blood grove" it's a fuller.
Good with handguard
me la recomendarias para defensa en casa? no me decido aún sobre este kukri o la versión tanto de esta marca boshin. muchas gracias!!
If the laws where you live allow you to own a handgun, I’d recommend that instead. The reason is that a ranged weapon (handgun is short or medium range) is better than a grappling distance weapon. If an attacker is within arm’s reach of you, then you are within arm’s reach of him. If you can attack at a longer distance, it’s safer for you. If not, then a weapon capable of stabbing and slashing is better then just slashing. The khukuri is predominantly a chopping weapon. So you need some room to swing your arm to use it. A long dagger might be better since you can stab with it at grappling distance (the attacker is on you), and if you keep both edges sharp, you can cut and slash with it in both directions if you have the room to swing your arm.
@@totallyfrozen tnx my friend for this important info!
Not a blood groove it is called a fuller. It adds strength to the blade.
I never get why they drill holes in blades they only serve to deposit grime.
I think it is to give it a modern look, but I agree they will collect junk in the holes.
Just weakens the blade at the narrowest part ...
Same as why they make blood grooves, it's to lessen the weight of the blade.
They remove steel in a non-essential area to lessen the overall weight of the tool.
Hey, I have a bunch of summack trees I need removed, would you like to try that knife out on them 😂😆
That kukri is too heavy. Better if it was made of carbon steel also.
Yeah I think most of the manufactured blades come in stainless so they can remain pretty at the expense of lost durability. Sometimes it's a shame when it is supposed to be a working blade.
A blade made with holes in it is weak.
That depends. If the blade is thick and the length and shape prevent you from a strong, 2-handed chopping action (such a you’d do with the an axe) then the blade isn’t weakened to the degree that you can use it.
