Pawnshop Kukri. What would you pay?

[Lucian253]

A local pawnshop has a kukri in very worn shape. I think they want $59 for it. I know I could get the price down, but is it worth it for it's condition? Thanks!

Give them 30 for it.

Thanks! Is it worth owning? Best guess by pics.

 

[Support Gunner]

I say yes.

 

[Dutchs_tfa]

Yes. That looks like a one off. 30 bucks they'll take it.

That's what I was looking at. Just the time to re-sharpen it would make me want to buy a new one. Thanks everyone!!

The Khukuri house in Nepal is where I get all of my khukuris from. It usually takes a month to make them

The two on the right are Angkhola Supreme. The top left is a Khukuri Eli (from the book of Eli). The bottom left is Super Chitlange.

The Desert Eagle is for size comparison

I wouldn't give more than (Forty) for it !................

 

[SHOOTER13]

That'll do some damage Greg...

 

[Dutchs_tfa]

I went with one of these. I like KABAR.....

This one was less expensive but still very effective. PUMA

KA BAR makes a damn good knife...

I don't have a real Nepalese made Kukri, but I have one made by TOPS that is well made.

Did you get a Kukri, the pawnshop one or otherwise?

 

[Lucian253]

I passed on the pawn shop one. The blade had been butchered by someone who didn’t know how to sharpen. Guy wouldn’t come down on price. I am still thinking about the ka bar, Ontario, or traditional Kukri. It will be my next large blade, unless I find a good one for my armor carrier first, lol.
