What is the advantage of a forward curved blade (e.g. on a Kukri)?
Knives like kukris (Ghurka knives) are curved forward, so the blade is on the inside of the curve. I understand that a curve the other way increases the slashing ability of a blade, but what advantage can be gained from a forward curve?
sgatlantisrose: surely if you're cutting a round object (for example, a log, arm or neck) the blade curves around the object being cut and increases the contact area thereby descreasing cutting ability?
You swing faster so it does more cutting. It be like baseball. If you be right handed why have right hand on top of left hand. Because you get more power

"Can people use chopsticks in non-Asian restaraunts in Canada?"?
A Chinese student of mine is moving to Canada and doesn't like using western cutlery. She knows that most restaraunts will not provide chopsticks, so she will carry her own. She is not concerned about people staring at her, but will the restaraunts be offended. Of course, I am talking about fine cuisine restaraunts. What do you think? I told her I would ask this question for her. Thanks
I know it's kind of a silly question, but she is a great student and overly concerned, of course I told it would be more polite to not use chopsticks in specialty restaurants, and she will certainly do her best.
Hi I live in Canada and I have actually witnessed people using chopsticks in restaurants other then (Chinese restaurants) around here. The individual restaurant owners and worker don't seem to get upset about it. I actually think it is kind of nice that an individual is not afraid to express their own culture in public. As for what the public might think about it...it would be really low for someone to laugh about that. Tell your student not to worry...
They actually sell chopsticks at the dollar stores here.
Tell your student that I doubt she will be judged by any of this.
I am also jealous because I can't use chopsticks.
I get frustrated and put them down and grab the fork again....lol
So it would be like me going to China I would have to bring a fork because I have practiced using chopsticks and I fail every time....

How To Create The Perfect Thai Atmosphere
Having guests home for dinner? Want to create a different environment, away from the usual? How about ordering or if you are game for it, cooking Thai food and creating a perfect Thai atmosphere, right here in your home? Don’t worry if you don’t know how to do it. We are here to help.
Set the Mood
Let’s start by setting the mood first. Thailand is a beautiful country with the best of nature’s bounty. So when you are creating a mood, ‘tropical’ is what you should be thinking. The must have items include a bright and colorful table cover, bamboo place-mats and runner that adds drama to the table. But if you really want to go the extra mile, then try to buy a traditional Thai table decoration from the Internet or your nearby market. What’s a dining table without a centerpiece? So to enhance the tropical feel and ambience, either pick up a traditional oriental centerpiece or create one with your choice of flowers.
Playing proper music goes a long way in setting the mood. Find some good, soulful Thai music to be played during dinner. If you can’t find Thai music, you can play Indonesian music. The soft and soothing rhythm of the music will create the perfect mood so that you guests can truly enjoy their Thai food experience.
Set the Table
If you thought that Thai food is best eaten with chopsticks, then think again. Thais prefer to eat their food using Western cutlery. Thai food is best eaten with a fork and a table spoon. The spoon works in two ways, to cut the food (instead of the knife) and to scoop the food into the mouth. While the fork is held in the left hand, the spoon is help in the right. Once you get used to eating this way, you wouldn’t want to eat any other way, Thai food or not!
Thai food doesn’t have separate courses, like in Western cuisine. The Thais sample one dish at a time and never combine the various dishes. Most dishes are sampled with a serving of fragrant Thai rice or noodle. Therefore, you can simply place all your dishes on the table, including the steamed rice. The best way to enjoy a Thai food meal is to taste every dish individually, as combining various dishes may lose their appeal.
We hope you and your guests enjoy your Thai food dinner!

Kukri Knife
Kukri Knife
Bowie knife vs kukri knife?
In you guy's opinion...which is the better overall design? And if you can't decide on a better choice...which one would be better suited for slashing, stabbing, chopping, skinning, etc ? I'm writing a short story, and two guys get into a knife fight...one with a Bowie and one with a Kukri. I just want to showcase the good and bad of each design..or which design is better overall.
Kukris are in general heavier and larger knives compared to Bowies, which are more typical knives compared to kukris.
In those differences lies both advantages and disadvantages for both blades.
Your knife fight outcome will be defined by fighter's skill in much greater extent, given all else equal.
Main advantage for bowie will be speed and better stabbing performance.
Kukri is much more formidable chopper/slasher.
I've used a lot of both types and for chopping it's very hard to match a good kukri.
http://www.zknives.com/knives/fixed/himp/index.shtml
Also, neither of those two were made purely for fighting and Nepalese grow up with kukris as working tools, which also happen to work very well for fighting. And for the record Gurkhas are widely acknowledges as one of the best soldiers in the world.

Kukri Knife
What brand of Kukri Gurkha knive does Alice use in Resident Evil: Extinction?
Hi, On E-Bay they sell diffrent types of kurki replicas of Alice's knives but none of them look exactly the same as to the movie. Does anyone know were I could purchase the exact replica of her knives? Thanks.
Just looked like a modified handle of the ones that the Ghurkas use.
Only Kukri that is built well (not out of leaf springs) is the Cold Steel ones
