re: The legendary Gurkha soldier

If any of y'all are actually interested in picking up a legit Gurkha knife for yourselves check out Himalayanimports.com, I bought one about six months ago and I can't recommend them enough. The thing is almost 3/4th of an inch thick at the spine, I'm not sure it could be broken without a jackhammer. Lots of interesting Gurkha stories/info on their page too, they are true badasses.
