Blade looks much nicer in person...didn't scan well...even though its the work blade version its very nice...very sharp...very cool :D

Came with a very nice scabbard with the two little knives included...those are very sharp too!

Can you bend the blades of the little knives.

Traditionally, one should not be sharp, as it is used as a burnisher. Chakma
The other knife, Karda, should not be able to bend as a table knife.

Inquiring minds would like to know.

Glad you liked your purchase.

Yup, your correct...after looking at them closer one is sharp supposedly for skinning and one is for sharpening the Khukuris blade.

I've already picked out my next one.... :oops:  :grin:
