This is how this World War Khukuri (kukri) got its name “The Dehradoone Khukuri” also. This World War khukuri (kukri) is one of the most beautiful shapes due to more curves in the front part of the blade. It is slightly larger than the current issue. It is because it was more in use in the World War Days. All Khukuris have two pockets on the back of the scabbard which hold a blunt steel called “chakmak” for sharpening the blade or for striking spark from flint and a little knife known as “karda” used for skinning small animals such as rabbits. The notch (kaura or kaudi) in the blade near the hilt of most kukris serves as the conduit for the blood on the blade to drip out, thus preventing it from soiling the hilt, as well as a device for catching and neutralizing an enemy blade. Material Used Highly Graded Carbon Steel ( leaf spring,5160)for blade. Water buffalo Leather for the Scabbard(outside), Rosewood Full Tang handle, Pinewood for the Scabbard (inside), Brass, and “Laha” (Nepali Traditional Glue).

Note:  This is a handcrafted Kukri therefore please note that each one might have slight variations in measurement.
