Gurkha Kukri, Comparison !

[rodentum44]

tradition has it the notch on the real Ghurka Khukris is so the user can draw blood from his own finger as he sheaths the weapon, (religious thing)

and also lets see you do the Khukri Dance!

[weaponseducation]

@rodentum44 I am not the best dancer LOL

[dudespin]

Let me see your warface! AAAAAAAGGGHH!!! That's a warface! When its comes to thrusting...a $2.00 ice pick is hard to beat. Kukris are slashing, chopping weapons.

[MrNapalm138]

I have the Jungle AngPana from the Khukuri House and you aint kidding its great for home defense! Its my go to weapon for bums in the night and it has the O SH*T factor cranked up to 10 ten!

[MrNapalm138]

@MrNapalm138 I ment bumps in the night but that works too hahaha

[Playboystaxxx]

Hey I just wanted to say love your shows and would like to know if you ever thought of doing a comparison for the best kukri for the money

[weaponseducation]

@Playboystaxxx I am a huge Cold Steel buff, I will do that in the future, thanks

[discthrowerott]

You need to stop saying thrust. You are hacking, your not even slashing or cutting you just hack.

[infectedvector]

My dad was a little boy in Indonesia during WW2. After the Japanese surrendered, the Brit's disarmed the Japanese soldiers but allowed the officers to retain their pistols. One day a patrol of Gurkha's with a British officer came upon a drunk Japanese officer in dad's village.The Japanese officer got crazy and went for his pistol. One of the Gurkha whipped out his kukri, cooly sliced off his ear, reversed direction, and laid the blade against the officers throat, grinning the whole time.

[mseanb]

I've had one for a while and it is scary sharp. As a serrada eskrima practitioner I enjoy blades. I tried slipping mine out once without undoing the retaining snap and it cut through it like butter! Careful with this one. And yes it's not really a 'thrusting' weapon

[godzilla2472]

which one is stronger and sharper the hand forged or the cold steel

[weaponseducation]

@godzilla2472 I like the Cold Steel due the weight being much less, it has the same thrusting power

[godzilla2472]

@weaponseducation thank you for letting me know :D

[NordicCowboy1911]

Hehe i'm doing the same thing my Christmas tree with my rapier sword.

[fusionxp]

stop saying thrust its slash

[strict9gt]

I love your vids tom keep it up..

[theBOOHOOeffects]

LOL I love your enthusiasm here with the Kukri. That baby will be in my hands as soon as I pay off my $2,500. 00 surveillance system. Securities measures goes hand-in-hand with other self-defensive measures.

[sjones5674]

Are you aware of new legislation introduced in the State of Florida that would prohibit CCW in hospitals and nursing homes?

[apsmoothtrigger82]

Great blades!, those who disliked this vid have major lack of taste issues, these is a great review and beautiful blades, great job Tom!!

[007bondson]

Good vid on the comparison, I didn't know the beast existed.. I do now.. And it's on the way to the great USA

[vizzo93]

Those are some bad ass blades. Looks like fun Tom. Great video.

[PrimericanIdol]

Let me know if you ever get the Natchez Bowie, either SK-5 or San Mai III. I've heard there is really no difference aside from the price. I've been eyeing it for a while.

[REVALG]

Man!!! You're back to being a teenager there. Your ear to ear grin says it all! Love it!!!

[GUNGhoGUNguy]

I'm gonna buy this for my grandma so she can defend herself.

[boxdoutfoot]

you crack me up Tom!! ...if everyone enjoyed life as much as you obviously do, this world would be a better place

[richlpz]

I can't believe the price on these. I just ordered two :-) thanks for the video

[sevenpeaksandvalleys]

Damn that was intense.

[weaponseducation]

@sevenpeaksandvalleys Intense is good...LOL

[dminor214]

chainsaw

[mikeking125]

5/16" is bigger than 1/4"

[weaponseducation]

@mikeking125 I know I messed up on that,

[sig20stallion]

Tom Knife video's are ok but we need that M1A video!!!!!

[MrTacticalArmory]

If benchmade made a kukri I think it would be better than both of then

[MrDistancenow]

@MrTacticalArmory But would be about 10 times more expensive.

[MILAN364741]

In cities of Nepal.we youngster still use khukuri in gang fights to chop the hands n legs.jai gurkhali

[panicmonkey9]

its like a boomerang

[pmprydr]

LOL bro you looked like a maniac at the beginning, too funny.

[GhillieSuitGUNS]

Haha Tom we finally saw your tribal side today lol. Keep up the good work. Love these fun videos like this lol. God Bless.

[MrVegaslive]

I can't find the cold steel Gurkha kukri on your website.

As for the nepal ones. I read nepal imports makes the best ones. But I don't see how much difference there is most are made by kids anyhow.

[HerbWalker]

I just got the MTECH Kukri.(Budk.com)....$19.00 and its GREAT!!! :)

[boltaction1989]

I got the custom "the beast" after ur first video and glad i did i herd they don't sell it anymore , i would choose the 3 cherri cause its better all around if u ask me, u would need to hold it and use it yourself to really get a feel for it and decide. great video tom. And also it took way less swings to cut through that branch , in a survival situation u want to burn the least amount of callories, the more u swing the more u burn!

[weaponseducation]

@2xEKIA No not at all.Plus I would not use a gun or knife unless my life were in danger.

[ross512009]

NIce blade but I like the guard on the OSS to defend from getting your hand cut by an attackers blade.

[wufwufwufwuf]

haha haha waahhaa best start to a vid ever ha haa

[mustang8582]

dude your like a 6'4 foot ninja.

[JUSTANOTHERDAY333333]

allied special forces would use a dagger and sneak up on a guard and slit there throut, these guys just smashed them in the head straigth through there helmet

[SuperMangn]

The trouble with that type of weapon is still does not offer much reach advantage over a normal blade. If a bad guy has a non gun weapon I would really want some kind of medium size pike style weapon to stop them getting close enough to strike at my body. Plus have a good blade as a back up though incase.

[avalon449]

Hopefully the neighbors aren't watching.....

[philsense]

Looks like you had fun making this vid sir.

[harpoclarx]

Chainsaw?

[251251]

O love the enthusiasm! Great knives...swords...whatever they are, theyre cool!

[sanantoniospurs9]

Hey Tom, What ever happened to your land? I wait to see it every upload and never do. Thanks

[EverydayOutdoorsNJ]

Very exciting Tom haha Thanks!

[dwilhoite]

Good looking blades Tom, thanks for sharing!

Peace

[GenericLatinUsername]

Greatest kukri's ever made :)

[skipwadoo]

I own one and it is amazing, it looks just like yours. I don't use it for day to day work but I wanted a authentic handmade Gurkha Kukri from Nepal.

[KarlBrkr]

If your adding a gurka kukhri for survival and combat the cold steel is your best bet. Great ability plus the weight savings. Remember every ounce adds up in a survival situation. Handmade is best just for a collection addition. Good video.

[weaponseducation]

@KarlBrkr The Cold Steel is much lighter & faster. Great point.

[earljaydillard]

I think that the kukri is marvelous. I have owned all kinds for over 20 years. I also would like to recomend that you check out a weapon used by the filipino marines called the Ginunting. They can be found on TRADITIONAL FILIPINO WEAPONS.COM. Ron Kosakowski sells all kinds of other weapons including his Kukri. The steel quality is awsome. The smith who makes them has a video of his blades cutting steel! Please check out his site.

[adamador]

Great demo vid Tom! I need to look into those blades. Take care, bro!

[xxuncexx]

lol great knives. i recommend eye protection next time =)

[GunsCigsAndBeer]

you scared the shit out of me within 10 seconds.

[tacticalkimchi]

Dang... What a blade!

[retthok]

LOL, buy an ax;)

[pennfootball71]

Okay Tom..They both did well! lol The ones handmade in Nepal is actually made from crappier steel then the cold steel...They are also heat treated not as good as the Cold Steel...the difference is the Cold Steel needs to be sharpened a bit.

[pennfootball71]

@pennfootball71 The Cold Steel has a more homogeneous grade of Steel then the spring steel used in the custom Kukri...also the custom one is a bit heavier though it gives it a tick of a weight advantage but both are good.

[commieforniatactical]

Great video, but usually thrusting means stabbing.

[VivaLaBamUrDead]

hulk smash XD awesome blades sir =)

[saltwaterking79]

great vid for trying to get into office at a later date...

[knoxclan2u]

The blade, balance, performance and history are all remarkable! I had the pleasure of serving with troops from Nepal on one of my tours to Afghanistan. They are fierce, dedicated warriors

[igotjuice007]

I have been to Nepal, it's a beautiful country, absolutely amazing. It's tradition in Gurkha families to each make their own personal "Kukri", they are personalized and always made by hand. Thanks for informing us about this rare opportunity!

[igotjuice007]

I think you could broken that limb with a spoon you were going so crazy!

[Bulwark1911]

Buy two, and dual-wield your way to success in any Zombie infested area !

[mario3804]

LFMAO you got a hell of a work out next time pick a softer tree limb.

[weaponseducation]

@mario3804 It was hard & green...

[micromanish]

@mario3804  the second one had less weight so i would cut thru less

[MongoWongo777]

Great Video! I have a Cold Steel San Mai Gurkha. I sent it out to get a Dura Coat job with some skulls. I cannot wait to get it back. Completely agree with the usefulness and effectiviness of the blade. BIG FAN!

I will definitely check out that place online, although I do not see the url.

Thanks!

[weaponseducation]

@MongoWongo777 The blade sites are now up, thanks

[NinjaAegis]

Tom the kukri was designed as a tool before it was used as a weapon. the CS is way better at slicing as a full flat grind. the Nepalese blades from kukri house are built like tanks though but are not nearly as sharp as a CS blade. Both have their advantages and I went say go the same route that me and tom did and get both =]

[weaponseducation]

@NinjaAegis Yes, great comment, You really do need to own both as they are very different

[theknifekid13]

[weaponseducation]

@TheMultiGunMan I did not forget to promote a great company, thanks for noticing:)

[1IdeaAhead]

Love the enthusiasm.

[weaponseducation]

@1IdeaAhead Enthusiasm is what keeps us all upbeat, thanks bro

[LogantheLibertarian]

lol I bet your neighbors love you

Tom- " HOOO HAAAA HAAAAA FEEL THE POWER OF THE KUKRI TREE!!!"

Liberal neighbor- " I knew Florida was a bad idea........"

Loved the video man keep it up!! and if you ever loose interest in the financial field, tree trimming might could be your 2nd passion lol

[weaponseducation]

@LogantheLibertarian I spend a lot of time trimming my Traveler Palms with a machete for fun !

[Alexanderedietz]

GGGrrahhh!!!! Ahhggh!!! lol

[chrischiampo]

Love these outdoor Blade Videos Tom Awesome You Really Enjoy Yourself

[shishiromura]

well, it was made as a utility tool, then was implemented into the Nepalese military. And they found it was perfect for both :D

[RNURSEWOODS]

Awesome blades Tom, thanks for showing us. I'll take the Gurkha blade any time.

Thanks for your time

Roger

[weaponseducation]

@RNURSEWOODS Thanks Roger

[LUISITO60007]

Nice blade Tom thanks for showing us what's out there for us to defend our own,, god bless

[weaponseducation]

@LUISITO60007 I carried my Colt Rail Gun today, thanks to you!

[nickwoo2]

Love the rajah 2, its awesome.

[knoxclan2u]

I bought 3 Khukuris and treasure all 3. It is amazing how much time the Nepal people put into making just one knife. Good vid...

[weaponseducation]

@knoxclan2u That blade is amazing!

[1nvrknws]

Camera pans back: a family of neighbors are watching shocked with their jaws to the ground, the mom covering the little one's eyes--shock and awe! I love the Nepalese Khukuri especially the ones from Himalayan Imports (HI). I have quite a few heavy-duty choppers and my CS Gurkha feels like a machete in comparison at only half the weight. But HI make fast and light fighers too, not just choppers. Check out my collection in a bunch of vids on my channel :) cheers.

[weaponseducation]

@1nvrknws Cheers !

[fumasterchu12]

You're a mad man with those machetes my friend. Cold steele makes some cool blades. God bless Tom.

[weaponseducation]

@fumasterchu12 I love the big blades ! Thanks

[stripymccatpuss]

You canot beat a proper Khukri....

[1crimm]

Nice work Tom
