MARINE CORPS LOGO ENGRAVED SERVICE PEACE KUKRI

This is very much similar to Standard Khukuri British Service No. 1. The Kukri’s shape and scabbard is same but Leather is totally different. It has used cream color leather, mostly, comes from India. This is peace keeper khukuri, normaly issue to Nepal police and Nepal Army to peace mission. This kukri has Marine Corps Logo Engraved on the blade & scabbard. 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 khukuris serves as 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 and enemy blade. The blade is made of hi-graded Carbon steel, which has about 10½ long blades while the SADAN (Most Strong Wood) handle is 4.5″ long. It weighs about 700 grams.
