Aye Up,

A short time ago there were a few threads on here discussing the pros and cons of Kukhris marketed by various companies.

I don't recall anyone mentioning the one in the title sold by Heinnie Haynes.

Has anyone bought/used/can comment on the pros and cons of it?

Can anyone comment on how it stacks up against those produced in Asia?

Thanks

I cant comment on the pro's and cons, but it is the knife used by Alan, the winner in the first season of Alone, if that's anything to go by.

edit. the blade is the same but the handle isn't.

Aye Up,

Thanks for that Badger, I'll see if I can find any footage of it being used.

I was expecting more than one reply, especially from those who have previously professed the virtues of the ones made from old vehicle springs.

Could it be that they just don't stack up?;)

Maybe everyone was busy playing in the snow...

I have the Condor Alan used in Alone. I bought it because 1. I'd always wanted a usable Kukri that didn't break the bank (I have a tourist one from India and it needs an edge) and 2. Alan used it as his primary cutting tool and it seemed to work; by that principle I also have the Cold Steel shovel that the winner used in the following season, not that I'm easily led or anything ;-)
