About Khukuri: The kukri is a type of machete originating from the Indian subcontinent, and is traditionally associated with the Nepali-speaking Gurkhas of Nepal. The knife has a distinct re-curve in its blade. It serves multiple purposes as a melee weapon and also as a regular cutting tool throughout most of South Asia. The blade has traditionally served the role of a basic utility knife for the Gurkhas. The kukri is the national weapon of Nepal, and consequently is a characteristic weapon of the Nepalese Army. There have been, and still are many myths surrounding the kukri since its earliest recorded use in the 7th century most notably that a traditional custom revolves around the blade in which it must draw blood, owing to its sole purpose as a fighting weapon, before being sheathed. However, they are frequently used as regular utility tools. Extraordinary stories of their use in combat by Gurkhas may contribute to this misconception. The kukri, khukri, and kukkri spellings are of Indian English origin, with the original Nepalese English spelling being khukuri. A khukuri is a curved short sword with a broad blade used especially by Gurkhas. Actual origin of khukuri is less known but common belief is that the modern blade is the transformed form of ancient Greek Kopis carried to the Indian subcontinent by the troops of Alexander the Great some 2500 years ago. This khukuri delivers longer cut as it possesses a much longer blade. This khukuri is especially used to butcher animals, cut trees. This khukuri is used to chop wood, meat, bushes etc. Two small knives namely Karda & Chakmak are also part of this kukri. Karda is a small sharp knife which can be used to cut small woods, dig holes, skinning out animals. Similarly, we have Chakmak that can be used for honing the blade and produce sparks. This is a 10-inch medium-weight kukri, with a spine-like dragon shape. This khukuri is lightweight with a handle made of carved water buffalo bone and wood. This kukri can be used in normal household use and for outdoor activities like hunting, clearing the bush. The Khukuri is a useful working tool as well as an excellent present for decoration. The blade serves for the purpose of hunting and military. The rings and grooves on the handle gives the traditional looks and provides more friction to get hold of the khukuri effectively. It is used to chop and split wood, meat, bushes etc. Two small knives namely Karda & Chakmak are also part of this kukri. Karda is a sharp small knife which can be used to cut small woods ,twigs , dig holes, skinning out animals. Similarly, we have Chakmak that can be used for honing the blade. Khukuri Specification: The thickness of the Spine: 8 mm Length of the Blade 12 Inches Length with the Sheath: 15 Inches Weight of the Blade: 600-650 gm Overall Weight: 750-850 gm Blade material:High carbon steel Sheath material:Wood and water buffalo leather Handle material:Rosewood and aluminums at Rivet Hardness of Steel: Spine: 22-25 RC Belly: 45-46 RC Edge: 58-60 RC What is khukuri famous for? It is famous for its traditional metal works especially its unique khukuri. The Bhojpure khukuri which gets its name from this very village is boarder, thicker and mostly come in standard size of 10-12” long (blade). Why does a kukri have two small knives? What are two accompanying knives of a kukri for? Karda and Chakmak are the two accompanying knives that come at the back of the sheath of a kukri. “Karda” is a small utility knife and “Chakmak” is an emergency sharpening knife. Karda has one sharp edge where as Chakmak’s both sides are blunt in order to sharpen/strop. Manufacture: The Biswakarma Kami (caste) are the traditional inheritors of the art of kukri-making. Modern kukri blades are often forged from spring steel, sometimes collected from recycled truck suspension units. The tang of the blade usually extends all the way through to the end of the handle. The small portion of the tang that projects through the end of the handle are hammered flat to secure the blade. Kukri blades have a hard, tempered edge and a softer spine. This enables them to maintain a sharp edge, yet tolerate impacts. Kukri handles, usually made from hardwood or buffalo horn, are often fastened with a kind of tree sap called laha (also known as “Himalayan epoxy”). With a wood or horn handle, the tang may be heated and burned into the handle to ensure a tight fit, since only the section of handle which touches the blade is burned away. In more modern kukri, handles of cast aluminums or brass are press-fitted to the tang; as the hot metal cools it shrinks, locking onto the blade. Some kukri (such as the ones made by contractors for the modern Indian Army), have a very wide tang with handle slabs fastened on by two or more rivets, commonly called a full tang (panawal) configuration. Traditional profiling of the blade edge is performed by a two-man team; one spins a grinding wheel forwards and backwards by means of a rope wound several times around an axle while the sharpener applies the blade. The wheel is made by hand from fine river sand bound by laha, the same adhesive used to affix the handle to the blade. Routine sharpening is traditionally accomplished by passing a chakmak over the edge in a manner similar to that used by chefs to steel their knives. Kukri scabbards are usually made of wood or metal with an animal skin or metal or wood covering. The leather work is often done by a Sarki. Classification of Khukuri: Kukris can be broadly classified into two types: Eastern and Western. The Eastern blades are originated and named according to the towns and villages of Eastern Nepal. The Eastern Khukuris are Angkhola Khukuri, Bhojpure Khukuri, Chainpure Khukuri, Cheetlange (Chitlange) Khukuri, Chirwa (Chiruwa) Khukuri, Dhankute Khukuri, Ganjawla Khukuri, Panawala Khukuri, Sirupate Khukuri translates as Siru grass leaf like. Khukuris made in locations like Chainpur, Bhojpur, and Dhankuta in Eastern Nepal are excellent and ornate knives. Western blades are generally broader. Occasionally the Western style is called Budhuna, (referring to a fish with a large head), or baspate (bamboo leaf) which refers to blades just outside the proportions of the normal Sirupate blade. Despite the classification of Eastern and Western, both styles of kukri appear to be used in all areas of Nepal. Some of the famous knives of the world such as the Bowie Knife, the Stiletto, the Scimitar, the Roman Sword, the Machete and so on have all, at one time or the other , played great historical roles as formidable weapons with men have demonstrated raw power and courage during times of battle. There is Khukuri named after Gorkhali General Amar Singh Thapa called Amar Singh Thapa Khukuri. This Khukuri is modelled on the real Khukuri used by the Gorkhali General. The real Khukuri used by Amar Singh Thapa is archived at National Museum of Nepal and is more curvy in nature than other tradition’s khukri. Uses of Khukri: The kukri also sees standard service with various regiments and units within the Indian Army, such as the Assam Rifles, the Kumaon Regiment, the Garhwal Rifles and the various Gorkha regiments. Outside of its native region of South Asia, the kukri also sees service with the Brigade of Gurkhas in the British Army. The kukri is the staple weapon of all Gurkha military regiments and units throughout the world, so much so that some English-speakers refer to the weapon as a “Gurkha blade” or “Gurkha knife”. The kukri often appears in Nepalese heraldry and is used in many traditional, Hindu-centric rites such as wedding ceremonies. Utility of Khukuri: While most famed from use in the military, the kukri is the most commonly used multipurpose tool in the fields and homes in Nepal. Its use has varied from building, clearing, chopping firewood, digging, slaughtering animals for food, cutting meat and vegetables, skinning animals, and opening cans. Its use as a general farm and household tool disproves the often stated “taboo” that the weapon cannot be sheathed “until it has drawn blood”. The kukri is versatile. It can function as a smaller knife by using the narrower part of the blade, closest to the handle. The heavier and wider end of the blade, towards the tip, functions as an axe or a small shovel. Blade Name of Kukri: · Keeper (Hira Jornu): Spade/diamond shaped metal/brass plate used to seal the butt cap. · Butt Cap (Chapri): Thick metal/brass plate used to secure the handle to the tang. · Tang (Paro): Rear piece of the blade that goes through the handle. · Bolster (Kanjo): Thick metal/brass round shaped plate between blade and handle made to support and reinforce the fixture. · Spine (Beet): Thickest blunt edge of the blade. · Fuller/Groove (Khol): Straight groove or deep line that runs along part of the upper spine. · Peak (Juro): Highest point of the blade. · Main body (Ang): Main surface or panel of the blade. · Fuller (Chirra): Curvature/hump in the blade made to absorb impact and to reduce unnecessary weight. · Tip (Toppa): The starting point of the blade. · Edge (Dhaar): Sharp edge of the blade. · Belly (Bhundi): Widest part/area of the blade. · Bevel (Patti): Slope from the main body until the sharp edge. · Notch (Cho): A distinctive cut (numeric ‘3 ‘-like shape) in the edge. Used as a stopper when sharpening with the chakmak. · Ricasso (Ghari): Blunt area between the notch and bolster. · Rings (Harhari): Round circles in the handle. · Rivet (Khil): Steel or metal bolt to fasten or secure tang to the handle. · Tang Tail (Puchchar): Last point of the kukri blade. Better to die than be a coward- “Better to die than be a coward” is the motto of the world-famous Nepalese Gurkha soldiers who are an integral part of the British Army. They still carry into battle their traditional weapon – an 18-inch long curved knife known as the kukri.
