A kukri is a form of Machete and the number 1 weapon for Nepal's military

 

[Curious Cdn]

They come in many shapes and forms they are not just for chopping celery

No, they make those for asshole Yahoos that will never use them as a machete. The basic design of an actual machete that actual people use hasn't changed for centuries.

That's like showing me a picture of a Hummer and telling me that it's a pick-up truck.

 

[Twin_Moose]

So what was the style used in the attack in Regina?

 

[MHz]

I am a responsible citizen. Served my country. Wounded in action. Improved myself through education. Held a full-time job since I was 17. Steady rises in pay and status. Pay my taxes. Vote in every election.

How 'bout you?

Sounds like you helped them become the assholes they are today. Toe the line the whole way and nothing protested. You are a real manly man for sure.

 

[Curious Cdn]

So what was the style used in the attack in Regina?

You tell me. If it isn't an old fashioned bolo machete but some sort of cutthroat cutlery like the stuff that you're showing me, your lie is getting bigger and bigger.


You haven't yet posted a picture of a machete. You posted pictures of something else that has recently been named as a "machete"

By the way, I own a 12 gauge Olin flair gun for sailing. There is an aftermarket attachment that you can buy mail order called "Machete" that converts it to fire a 12 gauge shot gun shell.

(You'd have to be a bird brain to try it. It is made, supposedly, for those who occasionally transit pirate-infested waters)

Why don't you post that picture as well, seeing as you're stuck in Pinnochio more.

That is a Ghurka Kukri and we had one in our household as a child. My father traded it for his RCAF peaked hat with a Ghurka sentry after the Japanese surrender when he served in Ceylon.

That is specifically a Nepalese weapon that is made to kill people and only to kill.

It is not a machete and a Ghurka Rifle would consider it to be sacrilege for it to be used as anything but a weapon.

Your lying is becoming more inventive by the minute.

You want me to tell you what type of machete was used after I asked you, yeah typical lecturing non answer I've grown to expect from you two. I threw out there machetes maim and murder too, and the best you 2 can come up with is it is not as bad as firearms, and a machete is made to cut vegetation, no other version is acceptable, and not for hurting humans wtf?

What is Khukuri?

The Kukri (also sometime spelled as Khukri or Khukuri) is a semi curved metal knife, it is the national weapon of Nepal. It has been used as a tool or as a close combat weapon. The cutting edge is inwardly curved in shape. It was, and in many cases still is, the basic and traditional utility knife of the Nepali people and symbolic weapon for all Gurkha regiments throughout the world and Nepal Army signifying the courage and valor of the bearer in the battlefield. It is a part of the regimental weaponry and heraldry of the Royal Gurkha Rifles. It is a part of many traditional rituals among different ethnic groups of Nepal, including one where the groom has to wear it during the wedding ceremony.
Uses
The blade’s distinctive forward drop is intended to act as a weight on the end of the blade and make the kukri fall on the target faster and with more power. Although a popular legend states that a Gurkha “never sheathes his blade without first drawing blood”, the kukri is most commonly employed as a multi-use utility tool rather like a machete. The kukri also has a religious significance in the Hindu religion of Nepal. During the annual Dashain festival kukris are ceremonially blessed.
For attacking, the kukri is most effective, as a chopping or slashing weapon, though it can be used for stabbing. In combat, the kukri is basically used in three different styles: stabbing with the point, slashing or chopping with the edge, and (rarely) throwing. Because it has an angular blade bending towards the opponent, the user need not create an angle in the wrist, which makes a kukri more comfortable as a stabbing weapon than other straight-bladed knives. Its heavy blade enables the user to inflict deep wounds and to cut through muscle and bone. Gurkhas were known for using the kukri to chop off an enemy soldier’s head with one stroke.
Utility
While most famed from use in the military, the kukri is most commonly used as a woodcutting and general purpose tool, and is a very common agricultural and household implement in Nepal. Its use has varied from building, clearing, chopping firewood, and digging to cutting meat and vegetables, skinning animals, and opening tins.

A Brief History of a Ghurka Kukri Knife Feature and Function

The word ghurka and kukri are two inseparable names; one cannot be said without other.

What you were saying CC?

There is a disciplined code around the use of a Kukri. It's more like a Samrai Sword than a Swiss Army Knife in that manner.

It was not designed to be used as a machete. It is meant to kill people, just as a hand gun is.
Let's see how many more chapters you can stretch out this bizarre justification for carrying hand guns.

I thought this was a thread about ladders

 

[Twin_Moose]

Oh, OK the articles are wrong CC is right, even though the one link is on the history of the Kukri, OK, gotcha, carry on

If you don't believe the links here is facts from the British museum
Artifact of the Month (British Kukri Knife)

Yes.

Read carefully.

The bolo machete is designed to cut dense vegetation.

The Swiss Army knife is designed to open cans of Vienna Sausage and to pull boot laces tight.

The Ghurka Kukri is first and foremost a weapon of war designed to lop off people's heads and limbs.
It can also do the above but those are it's secondary characterics.

The Kalashnikov is designed as an infantry weapon, meant to kill people.

The Glock is designed as an infantry weapon, meant to kill people at close range.

Do you detect any patterns? Having trouble sorting all that out?

Yep you finally admitted that a Kukri can be used as a form of machete, just like we were discussing

 

[Curious Cdn]

A kukri can be used as a tire iron if you're careful and you use the thick backside.

Therefore, a Kukri is a tire iron and not a weapon that was specifically designed to remove human appendages.

Righty-oh.
