Q: Why does a kukri have two small knives?

A: Two smaller knives, called “Karda” and “Chakmak,” are typically included with a kukri. The Karda functions as a utility blade for tasks such as cutting, skinning, opening tin cans etc. while the Chakmak serves as a honing tool to sharpen the kukri’s primary blade.

I bought the modern Kuhkri 10" it took a bit to come, I know it was coming from Nepal but even the notification to ship... took a while but I don't mind waiting for quality. I have purchased one of the other items they make and was looking forward to similar. Customer service was great. The blade itself was not what I would consider the quality it should be for the price point. It is pretty strong, the handle feels nice the integral finger groove is great but the quality of the finish was 80 to 120 grit striped metal, And it wasn't even a uniform direction. Around the guard it has big chunks gouges out and I had to smooth some of the handle rivets myself. Still working on smoothing the blade. I don't understand why either the previous kukhri was smooth and I could see my reflection, it was only a bit more and was three times the size with a solid wood scabbard. I have a thin leather that is hard to wear and I feel like the tip is going to cut out of it if I sit wrong. I guess buy from an outlet on etsy or KOA, don't get me wrong it feels like a sturdy blad and it has weight and will chop but the direct version felt like I paid too much for lower quality work.All of the photos added here are after I have spent not a small amount of time using all of my blacksmithing tools to try to smooth out the flaws. And the rough finish. My hands hurt so that might be adding to the time it takes but I don't feel like I should be shining a brand new blade that costs $182 if you don't have a coupon.read more

Bought a Khukuri here in 2019 but lost it due to unfortunate circumstances in korea while on the way home from Nepal.... It was a fantastic blade.Don't return home from Nepal through Korea with a Khukuri.I recently purchased one on their website and encountered an issue that was promptly resolved by customer service.They had to ship it from nepal, but they gave me a tracking number to see it every step of the way.After recieving my new khukuri I had to come and write a review to say it was beyond my expectations.I got almost the exact blade I lost years agoread more

Excellent blades. I picked up 20” golok style machete and the thing is amazing. It needed to be sharpened upon arrival... but want a big deal. Hollow grind whip not one of my favorites is a good grind for both slicing and chopping. This is a brush clearing animal.read more

A Brief Info. About Our Blades & Their Makers

14 inch Bhojpure Double Dragon & Temple Engraved Khukuri Hand Etching Art | EGKH
One of our blacksmiths meticulously engraves beautiful dragon & temple arts on to the blade of a kukri. (Click on the image to explore more about this khukuri.)

We forge our khukuris, swords, machete & other knives at our factory in Kathmandu, Nepal. We have a team of experienced & skilled blacksmiths, carpenters and cobblers who are masters of their craft. All our blades are hand-forged with locally available materials using mostly generations old traditional tools & methods.

Blacksmithing has been a hereditary job in Nepal for centuries. A blacksmith is called a Kaami in Nepali and is renowned all over the world for his amazing skills, knowledge & know-how of his job. Most of the bladesmiths in Nepal learn their skills from their father while helping them with their work. And as they continue working together for years a father passes all his knowledge, understanding & skills about his job to his son. And when the son grows & has children he too passes his skills to them. This is how the amazing skills & understanding of Nepalese blacksmiths & bladesmiths has been passed on for generations in Nepal. They are some of the best bladesmiths in the world.

Bladesmithing is a very easy to learn but difficult to master skill. It takes years (on many occasions even decades) of experience for one to be able to forge a well made, properly tempered & balanced, extremely durable blade. Our bladesmiths have decades of experience behind them with in-depth knowledge about the materials available which help us to forge all kinds of traditional knives to modern swords with extremely beautiful design and reliable build quality.

This is why our kukri, sword, machete & knife which are mostly made from 5160 high carbon steel are very popular & highly appreciated all over the world from Australia to Japan; Malaysia to India, South Africa to Saudi Arabia; Europe to South, Central & North America.
