Thanks for your review! I just ordered one from Smokey Mountain Knife Works and it should be here next week! For $24.00, it’s worth it just for the sheath! I let you know how it goes once I turn it loose in the forest of Washington State. It looks like it will be a great chopper! 👍🏻

@2ndchancegeorge Год назад

Glad to help. Yep cannot beatvthe price for sure. Be safe out there.

@illmade2 Год назад

I have a number of traditional kukris that I love. This looks like it would be a fairly nice beater but it looks like it needs a better edge. I had thought about getting one when I 1st saw them, And I probably still will. Thanks for the review

@2ndchancegeorge Год назад

It was a try out for me. Yep will make a goid beater with some work. Many thanks for watching its appriciated

To each there own , I my self am not a fan of Pakistan knives. My two knives I use the most are a Mora pro c and a Kershaw hot point . They handle all my needs, but I am going to give the marbles military utility once try ! I am a fan of your videos keep up the good work !

@2ndchancegeorge 2 года назад

Personally not a fan of Pakistan. I was just surprised it came from. Just about all marbles come from China

@richardhenry1969 2 года назад

Never saw that model I bet it would chop amazing if you did a little edge work. Just looking at the video the grind can be improved. It’s a beautiful piece especially for the price.

@2ndchancegeorge 2 года назад

Yep it is a nice blade. Putting some work into it would be good. For me a little to big and heavy. But it will chop well. Maybe I will do some work on it. Thanks for watching much appriciated

@rainbowhiker Год назад

Wow! Big and beautiful, George. These things are great in the back yard. A real world knife. Gorgeous thing. Careful with it. It's a sharp and shiny--you know. // My heavy Kukri wasn't sharp at all when I got it but after sharpening, it became a scary tool. It is an effective chopper and slicer now.

@2ndchancegeorge Год назад

Yep they be deadly to have around

@LockBits-ts6eo 10 месяцев назад

I've found that it takes a while to get used to handling them. I have a smaller one that took me a long time to learn to use properly and I also regularly use an army issue Kukri (given to my wife when she was a young volunteer in the hills of Nepal), it is a superb tool, once you twig on what to do with the thing. It takes a lot of punishment (please don't tell my wife) and earns its keep alright. I hope that you persevered with it and enjoy it for what it is.

@2ndchancegeorge 10 месяцев назад

I agree, this guy was a little big fir my so I got the Jungle Sweet from HHI in Nepal. Its smaller suits me much better. Love using it as a camp cutter as it can do all the work from wood prep to food prep. Thanks for watching. Appriciate your support. Be safe out there

@b.p.stimemachines2327 Год назад

I say the belly is for cutting say 3 inch limbs or branches then the protruding section for limbing the larger material then the point for kindling or fine cutting giving you an axe a machete and a fixed blade knife. Use the indent to choke up in the blade for shaving and so on but different strokes for different folks

@2ndchancegeorge Год назад

Yep they are very versatile. Thanks for watching 👍

@turtlewolfpack6061 Год назад

Generally an actual 9-11" bladed Mark 5 style khukuri should weigh under 600 grams. My 9.5" Kailash weighs just over 400 grams and is a nice size, small enough to be practical and large enough to chop and baton. My oldest khukuri style blade is the Kabar Kukri Machete from back before they were made of SK5, mine is 1085 but hasn't really given me any issues in the many years I have owned it.

@micekudson 2 года назад

Man that is a big knife, definitely a hatchet replacement lol!! And you can't beat that price with a sheath. Great review George!!

@2ndchancegeorge 2 года назад

Thankyou big guy. Always appriciate your support

@jamesflener6889 2 года назад

Good look to that blade! I if you would like a suggestion ,check out Blackie Thomas. He has some good history and usage vids. I bought mine from Nepal before Bush crafters were big on them,made a difference in the price,for sure! Have a good one and thanks for the great vid,truly enjoyed it!

@2ndchancegeorge 2 года назад

I'll check them out. I just ordered a smaller one from Napal....it was on sale. Kinda like the idea. Going to see if it will be a good camp knife. Thanks for the support always appriciated

@coltscustoms Год назад

I just got one of these from smokey mountain knife works for 25 bucks plus tax and shipping. Chopped on some real hard wood no issues yet. I like the choil right at the balance point to choke up on for finer stuff. Feels only about 1.5lbs to me not too heavy. Edge could use reprofiled but definitely seems very nice for the price hopefully it holds up over time.

@2ndchancegeorge Год назад

Lol...I am old and cranky. I found it to be good just to heavy for me. Glad you enjoy it. Cannot best that price for the value. Thanks for watching much appriciated

@DDDYLN Год назад

This Kukri is as good as Cold Steel's $250 Gurka Kukri, which they switched to 4034 stainless steel, and are still trying to sell it for the same inflated price as their old Gurka Kukri, which was beastly.

@2ndchancegeorge Год назад

Lol. True. Some of the pricing out the is a little out ravenous. I am a budget guy. Not by choice. So I dor have many choices. Both Marbles and Rough Ryder have kept me in knives. Thanks for watching. Appreciate the support

@DDDYLN Год назад

@@2ndchancegeorge I own a Rough Ryder Bowie knife. Nice knife, nice sheath. When the blade is thick enough, the 3Cr13 holds up just fine.

@2ndchancegeorge Год назад

Yep. Hanvt been dissapointed by them yet. Stay safe

@gregritchie9375 2 года назад

Love your channel! I just bought myself a Kukri. What’s that they say about great minds? Problem with mine is that I went plumb crazy. I sprung for the Tops Bushcrafters Kukuri 7. Blew the budget…several times over…but it’s going to be a good one I think. Not had the time to play with it yet.

That looks like a lot of fun George! 😁 I've not seen those Marbles Khuks at all 😎My uncle was a sailor, and gave me my first knife when I was about 5 - a Khukri! 😱My mother has a photo of me waving it at the camera! 😁👍

@2ndchancegeorge 2 года назад

Nice

@rayng4336 Год назад

Great video. My conclusion is it's inexpensive, but not really worth it.

@jojojeep1 Год назад

Did you ever go to the kukri house it’s in Nepal. They could make you a real traditional for about $100 or less with a wooden case. You know when I’m talking about ha ha ha, it looks like I commented right before you told the history

@2ndchancegeorge Год назад

Lol...it happens

@longrider42 Год назад

Puny looking little Kukri like object. I have something called the Khukuri Cowboy, which has a 15 inch long blade. That I got from Khukuri House Thamel, from Nepal. I now have a second Khukuri, from Khukuri House Thamel, that has a 12 inch blade. Both are great knives.

@2ndchancegeorge Год назад

Yep. Was kinda dissapointed but it wanted to look and see what they are about. Probably not a good choice but at the time it met my budget. The real ones are awesome blades. Thanks for watching I appriciate the support

@longrider42 Год назад

@@2ndchancegeorge You should look up Khukuri House Thamel. They have Khukuri's starting at 15 dollars, and up. The military model, improved with a full flat tang is like 50, now shipping will be a tad high. But it is coming from Nepal direct,and the money you spend at that store, stays in Nepal. Any ways, I think you will be surprised. Holler if you need the URL.

@DDDYLN 2 года назад

Nice looking knife, nice looking sheath, full tang, with a nice handle. The problem is that it's made of mystery Pakistani stainless steel. A kukri should be carbon steel.

@2ndchancegeorge 2 года назад

You are correct. That's why I got the one from Nepal when I decided I want one original. Thanks for watching much appriciated

@DDDYLN 2 года назад

@@2ndchancegeorge I can't say I'm not disappointed. I was hoping the Marbles kukri would be made of high quality steel, considering the low price.

@2ndchancegeorge 2 года назад

@@DDDYLN it was suggested to me to see if I would like one. At the price it was worth it to see then get the real thing.

@DDDYLN 2 года назад

@@2ndchancegeorge it's a really nice looking kukri. I'm sure it will work well for many tasks. Most people who own knives and machetes have a few stainless blades, because they want something decent that they don't have to deal with oiling. If they would list the type of stainless steel, I might be more interested.

@DDDYLN Год назад

@@2ndchancegeorge I can't really afford a genuine kukri either. Both Ka-Bar and Ontario make decent carbon steel kukris. The Ontario is bigger, thicker, and more traditional, for half the cost of the Ka-Bar. They're both 1095 carbon steel though, which is a bit too brittle IMO. Ontario has been switching all their big blades to 1075 carbon steel, which is a welcome change. Currently they say their kukri is discontinued, but I wouldn't be surprised if they come out with a 1075 version in the future. EDIT: apologies, Ontario just says their kukri isn't currently in stock. I suspect they'll be 1075 when they come back in stock.

@speedy608gmail Год назад

Hi, great video, I think the awkward shaped area is for choking up on the handle to do fine detail work. Also a bicycle inner tube cut and pulled over the handle might dampen the felt shock. Hope this helps. Thanks again and take care.

@2ndchancegeorge Год назад

Huh...great tip on the handle. Thankyou
