Well often people who believe curators blindly are nearly as daft as those who believe arms dealers {or anyone else who works in sales, or has a vested interest that increases there personal wealth... secondhand car dealers, electrical goods salesmen etc.etc.}....{ Of course excluding & Excepting all respected members of this forum of course...

}

Here's a early & "rare antique Gurkha kukri" in a secure museum area, gifted to them by police who had seized it...

Strange really it looks like 70s or 80s export crap to me...

But oddest of all is really, how scary & horror B movieish curators & police look together...
