This Afghan kukri knife, crafted by expert bladesmiths at \u003c\/span\u003eGrace Kukri House (Khukuri Craft Pvt.

This long and heavy-blade kukri-style knife is a powerful and reliable cutting tool — not just for display.

It is hardened to 58–60 HRC, carefully tempered, and meticulously balanced for strength, durability, and edge retention. If you are looking at cheap kukris and knives, be cautious: many items on the market are display-only pieces made from inferior materials. We don’t sell junk kukris and knives — we only offer high-quality, functional kukris and knives meant for real use — blades that deliver performance when it matters most. This kukri knife arrives very sharp and ready for action — an essential tool for adventurers, and ideal for collectors, outdoor enthusiasts, hunters, and as a meaningful gift.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHeavy-Duty Design:\u003c\/strong\u003e Heavy and well-sized, this functional kukri is designed for serious outdoor use.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBlade:\u003c\/strong\u003e 12 inches, semi-polished, made from high-grade carbon steel (5160 leaf spring from vehicles), carefully hardened and tempered for durability and edge retention.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHandle:\u003c\/strong\u003e Full tang, 5 inches, made from solid rosewood.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBlade Width (belly):\u003c\/strong\u003e Approx. 5.5 cm (55 mm)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBlade Thickness (spine):\u003c\/strong\u003e Approx. 0.7 cm (7 mm)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eEdge Hardness:\u003c\/strong\u003e Edge hardened to 58–60 HRC for superior edge retention.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eScabbard:\u003c\/strong\u003e Handmade wooden sheath covered in genuine buffalo leather.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe scabbard includes two utility tools:\u003c\/strong\u003e Karda and Chakmak\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eKarda\u003c\/strong\u003e – Small utility knife, useful for light cutting tasks.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eChakmak\u003c\/strong\u003e – Sharpening steel to maintain the main blade's edge after use.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe signature notch (Kaudi) near the blade's hilt serves multiple purposes: it prevents blood from running onto the handle and can also catch or deflect an opponent's blade.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCare and Maintenance:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eThis is a sharp tool — always handle with caution and use proper protective gear.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eApply light oil or blade lubricant monthly or after use.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eAvoid touching the blade with bare fingers after oiling.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eFor storage, oil thoroughly, wrap in an airtight plastic cover, and store outside the scabbard.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eKeep dry and at room temperature.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eClean regularly with a soft, dry cloth to remove dirt or residue.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eKeep out of reach of children — this is a sharp tool, not a toy.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNote:\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cspan\u003eWant to learn more about this powerful and historic blade?
