The 10.5″ British Gurkha Service Khukuri | Gurkha Motto Engraved Service Kukri is one of the most common and popular khukuris among the Gurkha soldiers. This khukuri (often called “kukri” or “khukri” by western people) is provided to all the British Gurkha soldiers during enlistment and is retained by them throughout their army career. Inspected regularly by an officer, this khukuri is usually used during Parade and Duty. This Service No.1 khukuri has the Gurkha motto engraved on the blade. All Khukuris have two pockets on the back of the scabbard which hold a blunt steel called “chakmak” for sharpening the blade or for striking spark with flint and a little knife known as “karda” used for skinning. The notch (kaura or kaudi) in the blade near the hilt of most khukuris serves as a conduit for the blood on the blade to drip out, thus preventing it from soiling the hilt, as well as a device for catching and neutralizing an enemy blade.

This British Gurkha Service Khukuri | Gurkha Motto Engraved Service Kukri is a polished knife with a blade of 10.5-inch length made from highly beaten 5160 carbon steel. The handle in this khukuri is 5.5-inch long and made from water buffalo horn. It is a fixed blade handle. The scabbard is made of pinewood covered in water buffalo leather. The scabbard consists of double frogs that help the scabbard to attach to a belt for easy retrival of the blade.
