Product Overview
The Genuine Gurkha Regimental Kukri is the official military-issue kukri supplied to Gurkha Regiments in India. Hand-forged from 1065 high-carbon steel, it features a factory-sharpened blade with a substantial 1/4-inch thickness, deep fullers, and the traditional religious notch that symbolizes Shiva's trident. The native hardwood handle and metal butt plate preserve the classic design that has made the kukri one of the world's most recognizable military blades.
The kukri is renowned for its distinctive forward-curved blade and exceptional versatility. It has served as the traditional edged weapon of the Gurkha Regiments for generations and has become a symbol of their military heritage. This genuine military-pattern kukri includes a regulation leather sheath along with the traditional Chakmak and Karda accessory knives. The Chakmak is used to maintain the blade's edge, while the Karda is intended for smaller utility tasks, reflecting the traditional design of the complete kukri set.
Ideal for collectors, military history enthusiasts, historical displays, and outdoor enthusiasts, the Genuine Gurkha Regimental Kukri combines historical authenticity with traditional craftsmanship. Its official military issue status, classic construction, and included accessories make it a distinguished addition to any collection of military edged weapons.
