Mini siraui (with a bone "blade") next to a normal sized one.

Enjoy!

Great topic Detlef,

Here are a couple of miniature Kukris from my collection. They are both 14cm long with 9cm blades, 2.8mm spine thickness at the bolster. While they may well have been made for the tourist market they are sharp and very well made with well forged fullers. They could easily serve as matched Kardas for another Kukri from my collection (acquired separately).

Hi Mate,
Thank you very much for sharing, very nice examples! Do you have a clue for what they are worked? They seem to have a good age and seems to be very well worked.

Regards,
Detlef

Hello Detlef,

Yes, as I go through the posts on the forum for this type, I see the questions around the name. I will keep this in mind.

Thanks!
Leif
