Gurkha Kukri Knife: The Iconic Nepalese Legacy

Introducing the renowned Gurkha Kukri, a blade steeped in history and tradition. Originally from Nepal, this knife boasts a unique inward curvature, reminiscent of a machete, and is known for its versatility - it's both a practical tool and a deadly weapon.

Historical Significance: The Gurkha Kukri is deeply embedded in the culture of Nepal. Not just a utility tool for the local people, it also serves as the signature weapon for the famed Royal Gurkha Rifles of the British Army, the Nepalese Army, the Assam Rifles, and the distinguished Gorkha regiments worldwide. Its widespread use in these prestigious regiments has led to its global recognition as the “Gurkha blade” or “Gurkha knife.” Beyond its military prominence, the Kukri often graces Nepalese heraldry and plays a significant role in the nation's traditional rituals.

It's an amalgamation of 11 pieces of steel, folded five times, creating a remarkable 352 layers.

• High Carbon Steel: Incorporating layers of 1095 steel - recognized for its elevated carbon content - ensures the blade is sharp, durable, and resilient. This unique fusion creates a blade that remains sharp even through demanding situations and can be relied upon for high impact actions.
