Jan. 15, 2012 and still no kukri knives for sale at the Canteen Shop. If you aren't going to sell them, then you should remove these videos from YouTube. It doesn't make your Canteen Shop business look good.
You guys seem like great guys but i question your "bushcraft" skills. The particular kukris you picked are really badly designed i'd suggest you check into more traditional Or very modern versions. Youre bragging on weight reduction in the kukri when thats exactly not the point of a kukri. You're also using the kukri wrong youre swinging it like a bowie knife. Try snapping your wrist.

Chop around the log not in one spot. You'll get a lot more done with less work. I've started using a saw a more than chopping. It's faster and less work.
I understand the desire to have the distinctly flat area for battoning, however the area used for chopping is not only reduced when compared to a standard khukri, but the pronounced belly mean you have to chop more precisely. I have mixed feelings so far. I'll have to see more proof of it's effectiveness compared to a regular khukuri.
I think if you straighten the rake out on the front a little, just a few degrees, it will offset the twist in the little blade...and allow more contact with the woof, without taking away from the slicing ability...just my two cents..but it is a wicked looking blade. Cant wait to see more. Great job Rob, and Congratulations Chuck....way to go.

@aksco That should be the opposite.
Convex are the best for slicing and chopping, scandis are best for precise, finer cutting.
That's why scandi bushcraft knives have a ..well..scandi grind... and why katana and other swords have convex blades.

@cdreid9999 Yup taken a kukri idea and removed all it's best features.
PLEASE, put the log between your work and your legs when using one!

my original issue khukri twists in the hand,
its a good alround blade but a small knife and an axe are better im my opinion

The hole in the blade can be used as a forward lanyard for more control of the blade during chopping and slashing motions.

The Khukuri design looks to want to twist in hand during the chopping evolution ?

@lisapizza8 The smaller one really had that issue, but the Larger one - the Bushcrafter - did Great. It was much easier to control on contact.
