The Greek Kopis and The Roman Machaira are both possible inspirations for the Kukri. These ancient, forward curved blades were known for their tremendous chopping cuts. Cold Steel takes great pride in being able to offer our versions of these historic blades. The Gurkha Kukri will out-shop any factory or handmade knives, including sword twice its size-even expensive, hand-forged Japanese Katanas. Features a SK-5 High Carbon steel blade with a black epoxy powder coat finish. Taking advantage of its downward curving blade and long "V" shaped cross section, the Gurkha Kukri places its edge at an angle to a target, creating a powerful shearing effect. The perfectly contoured and deeply checkered Kraton handle offers a superb non-slip grip. Includes a Secure-Ex sheath. 12" blade, 17" overall
