Grace Kukri House (Khukuri Craft Pvt. Ltd.), based in Kathmandu, Nepal, proudly presents this Traditional Nepali Kukri – 13 Inch — a larger, heavier version of one of the most iconic kukri designs ever made. Hand-forged by expert Nepali bladesmiths using time-honored techniques passed down through generations, this kukri is a true symbol of Nepali craftsmanship and heritage.
Crafted from 5160 high-grade carbon steel (vehicle leaf springs), this blade is heat-treated and tempered to deliver outstanding edge retention and toughness. This is a fully functional working blade — not a decorative piece — arriving sharp and ready for outdoor and utility use.
The signature notch (Kaudi) near the blade's hilt is a traditional design element with both functional and cultural significance, a hallmark of authentic Nepali kukri craftsmanship.
