The Cold Steel Gurkha Kukri was inspired by Cold Steel President, Lynn C. Thompson’s close association with Dr. Maung Gyi, chief instructor of the American Bando Association, and a renowned martial artist with wide-ranging knowledge and skills. Under Dr. Gyi’s tutelage, Lynn gained insight into the full potential of the Kukri and learned it was not just a chopping weapon but a piercing, slashing, and smashing weapon as well. Smashing techniques allow the Kukri to function as a hammer or mallet or to deliver non-lethal blows in a self-defense role. A concentrated blow with the back of the blade can break bones or be lethal if directed at the head.
With Dr. Gyi’s input, Thompson designed a longer, narrower point for the Gurkha Kukri with more distal tapering to the spine. This resulted in a thinner, sharper point which can be deeply driven into thick, tough targets with minimal effort.
Finally, a masterfully designed Kray-Ex handle was added to maximize the blade’s fierce potential. Perfectly contoured and deeply checkered, it offers a superb non-slip grip and cushions the hand from the shock of the hardest blow.

I personally know several families of gurkhas. The gurkhas are not mercenaries. They are part of the british army. Prince Harry even carried a Kukhri in Afghanistan.
The mercenary thing started when they were hired out by the East India company. But you're right--they're very much uniformed soldiers for the UK.
Mercenaries are freelance soldiers basically
Good to see a Cold Steel testing video. Haven't seen one in a while
That really is a wonderful creation, glad to see Cold Steel still got it !
I have those kukri's tattooed on my arm. My kukri's from cold steel are probably 15 years old...the best knife company ever. Thank you Lynn
That is just vicious. Gonna add that to my collection. Thanks, Stick!
Phil Collins is really on a rampage in that video! Nice looking knife!
i carried the CS Special Project Kukri for my 6 years in the Infantry back in the 90's hands down the best tool i carried next to my multi tool , then as a security contractor it got respect from my Saudi counter parts
That’s an amazingly beautiful knife, kukris are always amazing.Also, just like the rest of the cold steel knives, it looks extremely strong.
Looks amazing and the video was very good representation of how good performance wise. The bending stress test had me waiting for a snap....lol. Still straight after that is surprising.
Cold steel is the greatest knife manufacturer in the world
In my opinion
Y'all stepped it up! As a fan of the Venerable Khukuri, I like this.
Wdym ? It’s an old product
I have that one SK-5 . One of my favorite Models. I can baton split firewood heavier than my camp axe. Keep up the great work 💯👍🗡🤠
Gotta say, I absolutely love it. Love the history of Gurkhas and the Kukri.
Hey Stickman. That was a great video. Keep up the good work on the new products.
Really wanna test it send it to joeX
Seems like it took a set to me
You are getting better at throwing!
Congratulations!
Great video! The more you talk about the blade and keep attention on it the better it is. We will come to know the blade better and trust you more.
Thanks! Will do!
Love your weapons!
I want one , absolutely stunning performance
Awesome knife!
👍👌💪Absolutely awesome blade.
I've been around blades all my life since childhood. I've got the original C.S. kukri in sk5. It is so sharp I have to pay strict attention when handling it for safety's sake. What a beast!
Now in 3v!!?
The original Gurkha Kukri video is the most dominant knife videos I have ever seen.
Congrats Jason!
I have the chaos vs... so over the top. Love it
i have the sk5 version, that thing is a beast. and it has my favorite handle of all my fixed blades
What a beast of a blade
I've been waiting along time to get this piece
If Beans has one put me down for 2
This is VERY high on my list of future buys.
I’m impressed
Bought the rajah 2 at a parking lot sale at the old ventura location. I may upgrade to the full size. Crazy tool
Awesome
CPM 3V is an ideal option for a chopping blade!
Better than one made in Napal or anywhere else on the plant.
Mung Gyi and Lynn Thompson made a great blade for work or blade battles. 😊
Nice knife I need one of those
I like to watch that CS guy he is very good at what he is doing.
Gonna get one for summer
CS ads are the best in the business
Cool Video Awesome
I want to see Stick and JoeX get together and work through a few knives in the major size categories.
Good throw.
very cool
That's a beast
Good verrygood my bai
Yeah!🙂💪
Great video!! Congratulations to the winner
Awsome blasé!!!
crazy stuff, can I have the demo blade, Mr. Man?
First comment, I love these videos.
Are you sure?
We never knew how good we had it with lynn thompson, now we have bent knives and HEY GUYS STICKMAN HERE
Awesome Kukri and serious super steel ⚔️
I have the O1 tool steel version and I still like the newer 3v and the German Steel version to
But tell me it weighs more than 9.5 ounces , it just has to.
It updated in the description 👍
- Hey , you got a hammer ?! I need to break that cinder block ...
- Don't worry, got my knife right here ....
4:41 The Kukri is not a machete but a knife. Large knife.
Whats a machete? Knife. Large knife
Gonna buy one when I win the lottery!
I'd love to own that it's a bit steep for me I regularly messaged cold steel with ideas for the UK they acknowledged but never replied.
Cold steel is ace
Pretty impressive that a blade that long and almost 8mm thick is under 10oz.
My info was incorrect...extremely sorry for that. 23.8 oz is correct. Web was wrong. My sincere apologies. Beamer aka Stick Dude
I have impressed. Respect from Russia.
Hi coldsteel is there any chance you will make this without the plus!
Do those rapid chopping cuts with the buckler in your other hand. Please. It would make a really interesting paring and video! Stopped at 1:43 minutes to type this. Hoping you find the idea an interesting way to develop art... Would be great exercise!
well YEAH its strong look how FREAKING thick it is!
Damn! I'm Jason Jones! You had me for a sec @4:53 but thats not my email😢
We need a sheath for the Trench shovel
Isn't trench same size as smaller one?
@@ApocGuy unfortunately not
@@genuinelyconcerned3504 damn :(. custom made from kydex? where i live i couldnt even get sheath for smaller one, so i make one from 2 milimeters thick plastic drainage pipe. it sure isnt pretty, but works damn fine for that shovel. i know that czech army shovel sheath works just as fine with smaller one...
Wonderful.
Right up until you see the price tag. Nearly $800 for a knife.
Not a bad idea to cover your arms with some tough impact resistent cloth when doing that bending test.
Stay safe buddy.
I’m literally blown away right now…. 9.5 Ounces what?? Did I hear that right? (EDIT: apparently it is a typo) I have kukris that are no where near that weight.. and are smaller.. I have this Kukri but have not used it once, since I use my other “beaters”, but this will definitely be my hiking blade from now on!!! Hopefully the GSM heat treat isn’t garbage… that part has me concerned..
It’s a typo. Mine is 23 oz. Peter’s does the heat treatment, not Taiwan, so it’s the best available. I can chop sheet metal with no edge damage.
@@fireforce4464 wow thats great to hear, thank-you. Have you done any touch ups with a rod or strop? Stoked to use mine, what is the tang?
Is it cold steel the factory of blade?
Is that the kukri or the kukri machete? Pretty sure they're two different products.
You should also make some swords with that steel.
I still have my old CS video where
Lynn takes the head off a pig in one swipe!🖖🖖🖖🖖
Smashing the skull was expected but the concrete block blew me away...I want one.
that guy is having the time of his life slashing
For $750 this fuckin thing better fight the bad guys itself.
I have the older style Kukri Plus Machette with the black blade. You can do some serious damage with that too.
You can get the black Kukri Plus Machette for about $40. It's made from 1055 steel with a similar handle. You can do the same sort of playing for a fraction of the price.
Proud owner of a vintage USA made carbon v model.
Did you ever give those axes away from the Facebook post?
We may not have aired that...Good catch. Send me email Stick@gsmorg.com
That's getting closer to a @JoeX level of testing
+csknives *Effective even dull.*
Feel kinda bad for the cinder block
❤️🥰😍
All this channel does is dwindle my bank account by buying stuff!
I Wanna Handle That
That blade was wayyyy bent. No way did it come back to true. You can see it plain as day.
I wish you wouldn't put that goofy guard on there...
Other than that, I love this blade.
right here buddy I'll take one! Nice tool! Do you have any catalogs out for 2023 yet? but you can forget paying over 350.00 for it that's forsure! If it's 750.00 good luck selling alot of em! Just saying! Half that sure but 750.00 no thanks!
Hi
correction... gurkhas are not mercenaries. Their service in the british military is an extension of their service in the colonial army under certain non negotiable terms.
I’ve always loved yawls videos😂
Too heavy! But i love it!
I’m not a fan of the guard and even with $200 off I’m priced out I’d need one in sk5 or something like that
Thank you for the video but for me I never liked them. I prefer a smaller machete with a sawback and a D handle
Mercenaries! They won't like you calling them thar.They are professional soldiers of the British army for hundreds of years 1815!
I think he meant 19.5 ounce weapon 🔪
Not 9.5 ounce weapon 🔪
22.9 ounces is when it is almost
23 ounces not 9.5 that would be impossible but hey with Cold Steel you just never know do you 😜
all i know is that the Taiwanese lady from Black Lagoon had two of these things and she was a FORCE!😭😂😂
That's a very impressive knife there, but for $800. I could just buy me a pistol and don't have to get that close.
There’s a 200 buck code at the end of the video. Sign you up?
First 25? I just got the email today and the coupon code's been out for a week.. oh well.
At the end he says machete but it’s not the machete version. I know that & I haven’t bought CS in a decade.
It's $750. 😐
Damn, guess that is one piece of awesomeness I will never own.
750.00 worth???????????
cmon Stickman , get a dead hog to chop through like the old iron proof days !!!!
Its winter here...they are hard to catch this time of the year...don't fret...Spring is coming...Hog Slaying Begins.
@@csknives hell Brother just come down here to East Texas , we're hip deep in pigs no matter what season.
Email me Stick@gsmorg.com. Lets make it happen
Great for Vampires.
