WWI or WWII British Kukri?

[J. M. C.]

I can't find any markings on this one. It looks like a British made Kukri from WWI or WWII. Sadly there is no scabbard.

Do any of you guys recognize this one?





Thanks for any help.

Nice Kukri,

Non marked M43, WW2 version of the MKII

Looks good to me as well - WWII, as Reuben says. Scabbards are black buffalo hide [over wood] and have the two small 'knives' on the reverse side, plus a green webbing frog.

Thanks for the help guys. It would have been great to have a scabbard but it's nice all the same.

It's the first that I have seen with a false edge on the back of the blade. I guess it's for a back swing if one is needed.
