The Jungle of PRI type is the official combat issue of the Gurkha regiment. This is a training knife carried by the Gurkha during the combat in the Jungle. The blade is off-shining and better for jungle use. The shape and size are similar to the standard issue. The blade is made of Highly Graded Carbon with a balanced water puring temper on the edge of the blade therefore it’s very strong. Besides carrying the knife in combat and training, this blade can be used to chop wood or bone and clean bushes. It has a full tang which means the metal of the blade fully goes through the handle for maximum strength. The craftsmanship on this knife is amazing so if you are looking for the finest quality Kukri you will not be disappointed. 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 from flint and a little knife known as “karda” used for skinning small animals such as rabbits. The notch (kaura or kaudi) in the blade near the hilt of most kukris serves as the 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.
