How sharp was the blade on arrival? What kind of angle did it have? Thanks in advance.

The blade was extremely sharp on arrival and well oiled. The angle is smaller than I anticipated and I had trouble sharpening it with a wet stone. At it’s wisest point, the top of the blade is almost a centimeter wide, thus the sharper angle. Because of the thickness and length of the blade it is much heavier than I anticipated as well. Perfectly weighted, and balanced, but heavy. It wasn’t until I became a bit stronger that I was really able to handle this knife. Although not relevant to your questions, out of the many blades that I have purchased this is my favorite. You won’t regret buying this for use, or display. Enjoy a finely crafted and gorgeous blade. Peace. Z

Is this knife truly made by ex gurkha khukuri house and stamped "egkh" (2016 review), or unstamped/blank (2018 review)?

It has “Nepal” stamped near where the hilt usually is. No other markings. I purchased mine for use in the bush so I wasn’t really concerned with who made it just its worksmanship.
