I don't get the whole cost thing with a Kukri, how come Cold Steel can sell them for under $20 ?

Sure their steel and heat-treat ain't as good as used by the Yard or Swamp but surely four or five times the cost would cover it ?


The Ka-Bar Kukri with better steel, heat treat and fit/finish than the Cold Steel still sells for under $50.

Becker Knife and Tool are talking bringing their version out again which would likely be better than the Ka-Bar ( although both companies are now merged ) and I believe the price point will be well under $90.

So is a reasonably priced Scrap Kuk outta Dan's awesome SR-77 possible......I'd think so !!!
