The 13″ Traditional Cheetlange Hunting Khukuri (also called “kukri” or “khukri” by westerners) is the distinctively curved Nepalese knife that is very popular with the Gurkhas & Nepalese people. It is the basic utility knife of the Nepalese people. The Khukuri is respected throughout the world for its fearful effectiveness as a close combat knife. It is similar to a machete, used as a utility knife in Nepal. It is a characteristic survival blade of the Nepalese army, the Royal Gurkha Rifles of the British Army, the Gorkha regiments of the Indian army, the Singapore Police, and the Royal Brunei Guard.

The Khukuri is effective as a chopping and slashing knife. While most famed for its use in the military, the Khukuri is the most commonly used multipurpose tool in the fields and homes in Nepal. It has varied uses from building, clearing, chopping firewood, digging, slaughtering animals for food, cutting meat and vegetables, skinning animals, and opening cans. It’s used as a general farm and household tool. The khukuri can be used as a survival knife or camping knife for outdoor lovers.
