The Gurkha Kukri knife, a symbol of Nepalese heritage, is famed for its distinctive curved blade and versatile utility. Historically used by the Gurkhas, elite Nepalese soldiers, the Kukri is both a weapon and a tool. Its unique design allows for powerful chopping, making it effective in combat and daily tasks. The blade’s shape, resembling a machete, contributes to its unparalleled balance and cutting efficiency. Traditionally, a Kukri knife includes two smaller blades: a Karda for fine work and a Chakmak for sharpening.
