Let's get right to it: AWESOME KNIFE. Can we really call it a knife? I almost believe short-sword would be a more appropriate term of description/title. Whatever you want to call it, it's AWESOME. Very very happy. I ordered mine sharpened and while I cannot speak to my esteemed colleague who recently received his own kukri and didn't care for their sharpening job, I thought they did a commendable job on mine own kukri. Perhaps not a PERFECT job, but certainly better than I could do and I am happy. It is a bit of a cost but still, necessary in my opinion. This feels great, it has some serious heft but the heft is a good heft, it feels like it could do serious damage to whatever it connects with. You need to be CAREFUL! The real problem I encountered was I received two of the same "small utility knives" - I didn't receive one "karda" and one "Chakmak" - I received two identical knives- what I believe them to be are "kardas" - the karda is supposed to be a sharpened utility knife, and the chakmak is a steel burnishing blade (unsharpened). I believe these are SUPPOSED to be kardas but completely unsharpened edge, so useless really. Oh well, I bought it for the big kukri and sheath, not for two utility knives. Very happy. I couldn't decide on this "fuller-size" model and the smaller Officer's Kukri and I am glad I got this one.

I paid for a sharpened kukri but this one was not very sharp at all. Considering the cost of the sharpening relative to the price of the kukri I expected better. Also, doesn't exactly match the image.

I like the weight of this blade very much...lots of heft. The only things I would change are the brass fittings and the lack of a strap to secure the blades to the scabbard. I know the strap is not on the original kukris, but it would be a nice addition. As it stands, the main blade will come out very easily.
I have also had a small nail securing the brass tip of the scabbard come out already. I'll fix this myself with JB Weld or some other adhesive.
