the Gurkha Khukri

A friend brought a few of these back from Nepal a while back. Anybody have any experience with these?

I've been trying to throw them with varying degrees of success. Maybe I need to try a new grip, haha.

For anyone who hasn't seen them there's a picture here: http://www.shaolinbrand.com/shaolinbrand/l1900008.jpg

I use the khukri when I do work down in South America. Standard issue was always a machete. We got the idea from a bunch of SAS jungle guys. Much easier to hack through the bush with. Never tried to throw one though.
