Where this Khukuri is Made?
The origin of this 13″ Double Fuller Traditional Bushcraft Khukuri is in Dharan which is a small Gurkha town that is located in eastern Nepal. Dharan is very famous and important place for Gurkha recruiting. We have our own factory in Dharan with over 200 blacksmiths (metal smiths, “kamis“, “bishwakarmas”). And all the Khukuris are hand forged by them.
The Khukuri (also called “kukri” or “khukri” by westerners) is the distinctive curved Nepalese knife that is very popular with the Gurkhas & Nepalese people. It is the basic utility knife of the Nepalese people. The Khukuri is respected throughout the world for its fearful effectiveness as a close combat knife. It is similar to a machete & used as a utility knife in Nepal. It is a characteristic survival blade of the Nepalese army, the Royal British Gurkhas regiment of the British Army, Gurkha regiments of the Indian army, Singapore police, and the Royal Brunei Guard. Some English speakers refer to this knife as a “Gurkha blade” or “Gurkha knife”. The Khukuri is effective as a chopping and slashing knife. While most famed for use in the military, the Kukri is also one of the most commonly used multipurpose tools in the fields and homes in Nepal. It has various uses from building, clearing, chopping firewood, digging, slaughtering animals for food, cutting meat and vegetables to skinning animals, and opening cans. It’s used as a general farm and household tool used by Nepalese people. This khukuri can be used as a survival knife or camping knife for outdoor lovers.
