Kukri Knives
The Kukri is a Nepalese knife used by the Gurkhas. The name of these
knives can be spelt and pronounced numerous ways. The most common names
are Kukri, and Khukuri. The Kukri design is centuries old with the blades
typically between 12 to 15 inches long. Most Kukri knives have a notch
at the base of the blade near the handle. This notch is called the cho
or kaudi. Our new-style modern kukri does not have this. For hundreds
of years, the kukri knife has been carried into battle as well as carried
for work and harvest around the world. The Kukri flat ground blade forms
a "V"shaped cross section and places its edge at an angle to
a target, creating a powerful shearing effect. The Kukri will out-chop
any factory or handmade knives, including swords twice its size.
Stainless

Most Kukri knives are made with hand-forged carbon steel and will
rust. Our model is stainless steel and will give you many years
of service without rusting. 15” overall length and includes
leather sheath. This is a great knife at an excellent price.
