Kukri Knives Features

The Kukri is a Nepalese knife that can be found in almost every household in the northeastern states of India. It is like a machete, long, approximately 16 to 18 inches in blade size, and around 450 to 900 grams in weight. The significant difference between a Kukri and a machete is that the blade in a Kukri is highly curved instead of a straight blade with angled or smooth spines. It has a single cutting edge and a notch close to the handle. The notch comes in handy as the Kukri is a war weapon, so it does not let the blood drip into the user’s hands, which could make them slippery.

For UK buyers, Perkin Knives offers razor-sharp Gurkha Kukris manufactured for strength and is ready to ship across the UK. Buy now. We have limited stock.
