Regional handmade Nepalese knife. Kukri / KHUKRI military knife in high-grade carbon steel by Everest Forge (68914) Kukri, khukri, Nepali language:खुकुरी pronunciation: khukurī – a heavy curved Nepali knife used both as an incisive weapon with a single-edged curved head and as a tool. The kukri forms part of the armament and heraldry of the Gurkhas, a nation of warriors. To many people it is known as the Gurkhas’ knife. Construction Most kukri are handmade. During the Second World War, Gurkhas serving in the army preferred knives made by a village blacksmith (kami) from their home village to the mass-produced copies in their possession. The quality of the blade varies greatly. The kami make the kukri by hand, forging steel extracted from the spring leaf of an old truck or railway carriage. The handle of the knife is manufactured from wood or water buffalo horn, while the scabbard is created from leather-covered wood. The typical blade length is around 25 to 38 centimetres, with the weight of the knife varying between 0.5 and 1.5 kilograms respectively. The Panawal dotted model is particularly massive, reaching a weight of over one kilogram with a blade length of around 25 centimetres. In addition to the difference in weight, knives can vary in the shape of the blade, with knives with distinctive shapes currently being made in the various valleys of Nepal: Sirupate – Dharan, Chainpure, Chitlange – Chainpur, BhojPure – Bhojpur or Ganjuwal – Ganjuwal. The cremonial versions can reach a length of 70 cm. Ceremonial blades designed for water buffalo sacrifices are much larger. Kukri have an indentation in the base of the blade at the handle, called a ‘kaura’. There are different views as to the role the ‘kaura’ plays, some of it is practical – it is used to intercept an opponent’s blade, the place where blood drains from the blade, it marks the end of the blade during sharpening, some of it is symbolic – it is a symbol of potency. Usage As young as 5-year-old Nepalese learn to use these knives. A popular legend has it that a Gurkha “never puts the kukri blade back into the scabbard before it has tasted blood”. This legend is false, as the kukri is primarily a multi-purpose utility knife used primarily as a machete. The kukri can be used for building, grubbing, chopping wood, digging, cutting meat and vegetables, framing game, and opening cans. Due toits size, blade shape and weight – the kukri is fought like a machete. During hand-to-hand combat, cuts are directed at the head and neck of the opponent. Despite its resemblance to a boomerang, the kukri was not designed to be thrown, and the characteristic curve of the blade is used to efficiently transfer kinetic energy to the target when making cuts. The kukri has religious significance in Hinduism and is sacred during the Dasain festival. Scabbard Kukri scabbards are usually made of wood covered with leather. The leather work is usually done by the sakri. The scabbard has room for two small knives called a karda and a chakmak – but these are often lost. Most collectors of white weapons do not pay much attention to them. The karda is used for framing game. The chakmak was used as a flint to light a fire with the help of flint. Flint is sometimes carried in a pouch attached to the scabbard. Method of carrying Military units made up of Ghurkas carry the kukri on the main belt on the back right side. The knife is drawn with the right hand. source: wikipediaAn excellent gift idea !!! !!! NOTE: Leather scabbards pull moisture out of the air and tend to rust knives if not stored properly. When you are done using your knife, clean it thoroughly and put it away FROM the leather scabbard, apply gun oil, ‘Seal 1’ or similar protectant to it and store. Damascus, 1095HC and D2 can rust and develop stains if not lubricated. 1095HC steel can tarnish and turn the blade black if blood and acidic liquids or chemicals get on the blade. The blade will not lose its cutting propertiesbut will lose its satin colour. !!! Due to the fact that the knives are handmade there may be slight differences in appearance, dimension and weight !!!
