The Kukri Knife: A Fusion of Tradition and Utility

Discover the essence of rugged craftsmanship with the Kukri knife, an enduring emblem of outdoor survival and heritage. Known for its distinctive inwardly curved blade, the Kukri is a vital component of the outdoorsman's gear. Originating in Nepal and famously associated with the Gurkhas, this knife stands as a foundational model of multifunctional tools, marked by its iconic design and exceptional versatility.

The Kukri knife is a testament to practical design and rich history, with a blade length now available up to 13 inches. Crafted from robust, high-quality steel, its construction is ideal for a variety of tasks, including chopping, slicing, and skinning game. The knife's unique shape ensures it performs exceptionally well in both heavy-duty chopping and detailed cutting tasks. Battling Blades proudly upholds this tradition, producing Kukri knives of unparalleled quality, intended for the challenges of wilderness exploration rather than combat.

Blade Craftsmanship

This Kukri knife is masterfully created from pattern-welded Damascus steel, renowned for its exceptional durability, edge retention, and mesmerizing visual appeal. The blade consists of 352 layers of steel, meticulously folded over five times from 11 primary pieces, ensuring a superb balance of hardness and flexibility. This quality is reflected in a Rockwell hardness rating of 55 to 56 HRC, made possible by the use of high carbon 1095 steel, among the finest choices for high-performance blades. The Damascus steel bolster enhances the knife's aesthetics and ensures its equilibrium.
