The notch (kaura or kaudi) in the blade near the hilt of the khukuri serves as a conduit for the blood on the blade to drip out, thus preventing it from soiling the hilt and as well as a place for catching and neutralizing an enemy 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 creating spark with a flint and a little knife known as “karda” used for skinning small animals.
This 13.5″ Chitlange Blocker Handle Khukuri is hand forged by Kaamis belonging to the Biswakarma castes who are the traditional inheritors of the art of kukri-making. It is handmade khukuri made from high-quality materials and using very traditional methods & hand tools.
