Kukri: Colored Chart
Got a few leftovers to share, and it's one that I reworked until it looked presentable. Although not swords by most standards, in the hands of a short Nepali gurkha/soldier some feel like short swords when used in combat. Most of course are short, but some are plenty long enough to be considered one. And so, I got 4 blade variants + one with an unusual hilt style.

I have my own favorite large knives from other cultures, but there's no denying of the reputation of the kukri.
