I've been trying to get a Britishicon issue Kukri for about a year now. I've not been very diligent about it but every once and a while one comes up for auction. Seems like everyone knows what they are however and I just can't push that $300 button to get one. There are Nepalese Kukri's and IMA got a tone of them a while back and they are about the only ones that have legit ones for sale. Great care has to be taken with the ebay auctions. Most are fake as fake can be. By fake I mean not military. Many are "real" kukri's but just not military. The things are mostly hand made out of spring steel so there isn't exactly a standard pattern that is identical to others. Military ones should have a serial number at minimum, often in script. British issue will have the broad arrow. The Indian military also issued them and this is even more of a grey area. Indian Kukri's in general aren't as sought after as either the British or Nepalese ones.

What makes it worse is the tourist trade went all the way back to WWII so ones that grand dad brought back are probably fakes also.
