Khukuri blades

Was presented with an awesome gift(s) for house sitting for someone while they trekked the mountains of Nepal.

Both come in original wood sheaths wrapped in Yak skin.

There are two smaller blades (as seen in the pics below) that sit behind the main blade.

One has an edge to it, while the other is duller than a butter knife. Does anyone know what these two smaller blades are for?

I'm going to hopefully find someone who can fashion out a leather (cowhide) sheath for both blades, because I don't want to damage the original sheaths. They're too dang pretty.

Those (the sheaths) I'd put under glass, but the knives themselves are going to be used.
