Description
The Gurkha Bhojpure Kukri is one of the most famous and historically significant kukri knives of Nepal. With a 10-inch hand-forged carbon steel blade and an overall length of 16 inches, it has been a standard issue kukri for Gurkha soldiers and remains a cultural icon in Nepal.
Handcrafted by the skilled Bishwakarma (Kami) blacksmiths of Bhojpur — the birthplace of kukri-making — this blade represents both Nepalese heritage and military tradition. Each kukri is forged from 5160 high-carbon spring steel (commonly recycled from truck leaf springs), water-tempered for durability, and polished to a mirror finish.
The sharp, semi-curved blade makes it ideal for outdoor survival, chopping, farming, and camping tasks, while its polished edge allows for versatile everyday use. Known for its perfect balance and reliable strength, the Bhojpure kukri remains a trusted companion for both professionals and collectors.
This kukri set includes a traditional leather sheath and two utility knives:
-
Karda — a small sharp knife for skinning or fine cutting.
-
Chakmak — a blunt knife for sharpening or striking sparks.
Whether used as a practical outdoor tool or displayed as a symbol of Nepalese tradition and Gurkha bravery, the Bhojpure kukri is an essential piece of history and craftsmanship.
