This is an 11″ Traditional Carved Handle Historic Khukuri (also called “kukri” or “khukri” by westerners). The khukuri is the distinctive curved Nepalese knife that is very popular with the military & Nepalese people. It is the basic utility knife of the Nepalese people. The Khukuri is respected throughout the world for its fearful effectiveness as a close combat knife. It is similar to a machete, used as a utility knife in Nepal. It is a characteristic survival blade of the Nepalese army, the Royal Gurkha Rifles of the British Army, the Gorkha regiments of the Indian army, the Singapore Police, and the Royal Brunei Guard. Some English speakers refer to this knife as a “Gurkha blade” or “Gurkha knife”. The Khukuri is effective as a chopping and slashing knife. While most famed for use in the military, the Khukuri is the most commonly used multipurpose tool in the fields and homes in Nepal. It has varied uses from building, clearing, chopping firewood, digging, slaughtering animals for food, cutting meat and vegetables to skinning animals, and opening cans.

Our 11″ Traditional Carved Handle Historic Khukuri is made of an 11-inch 5160 carbon steel blade. The blade is semi-polished that has gone through proper water tempering. The handle of this khukuri is traditionally carved 5.5-inch tail tang handle which is made of rosewood. This is the tactical khukuri that weighs about 700gm and about 1293gm ( 2.85 lb) with the scabbard. The scabbard is made out of softwood wrapped in water buffalo hide (leather). The leather is dyed in black color. This khukuri comes with two small utility knives called “karda” & “chakmak”. There are two pockets on the back of the scabbard which hold a blunt steel called “chakmak” for sharpening the blade or for striking spark with a flint and a little knife known as “karda” used for skinning small animals such as rabbits. This is a special decorative khukuri or a gift for your loved ones as well as an outdoor or jungle knife for bone chopping and good for camping.
