I do a lot of chopping both at home clearing brush and for work. A kukri is great for clearing sapling up to larger growth, but wouldn't be my choice for briars/cane/brambles/vines.
That said, some of the best are indeed made in Asia/India, where they were invented and still made the exact same way out of differentially treated (edge is harder than spine for toughness and edge holding) truck leaf spring steel. Kukri House and
Himalayan Imports are the big names for importing quality, and they have many fine specimens if you want the original real deal.
As far as American brands the Kabar Becker BK21 is my absolute favorite. It is the perfect shape, edge geometry, and weigh for processing wood, and I've gotten to where I prefer it to a hatchet (which is pretty much how a kukri works).

That said, having use many Ontario knives, I would have total faith in their offering:

Or KaBar's non-Becker Kukri, though they took some liberties with the design:

I also have a few older Cold Steel Kukris, one in Carbon V and fairly rare one in 1095 steel. I haven't used any of their current models since they started outsourcing so much of their work and Camillus (who I believe made their Carbon V) closed doors. I do, however, have their cheapo Magnum Kukri machete, which has honestly been an absolute beast after I put several hours up front fixing the absolute garbage edge geometry. I've absolutely abused the hell out of that thing, and its primary job is chopping roots, and it has held up well for the 15 or so dollars it cost.
I've no experience with the Condor Kukri. I did have one of their Goloks and it was a (barely) sharpened pry bar that was going to require hours of reprofiling, so I passed it along. I would defer to thrillhill on that one as the resident expert.
Also, only added Amazon links for direct price comparison. Please buy from a good, reputable knife dealer instead.
