Wonderful knives, a family friend who recently passed left us one he had. He was born and grew up in Nepal, and was given it by a Nepalese army member as a young lad. He kept it and cherished it as a reminder of his childhood. Sadly he passed away in April earlier this year.
Got mine yesterday! Three weeks to deliver, which was a week less than I expected. It is a very fine knife, and larger than two others I have. Super sharp! Excellent craftsmanship. They even sent a bio on the smith that made it! I may order a different knife from them now.
These knives are worth every cent for the way there made.I bought a Custom Randall knives Bowie for $950 and waited 5 years.Bought my serv No.1 kukri for $75 and got it in a month and beat the hell out of it and not a chip in the blade
I like the idea of displaying it on a stand. They are great knives My duty knife hangs on my backpack and I use it for bushcraft chores. I carry the other one in my car wedged between the seats. But I like the idea of displaying it on a stand. I need to find a stand. Thanks for the idea!
There was a ex Gurkha who worked with us in our Security team well he told me none of the Gurkha's knew who made their Khukuri's he said the way the Khukuri's are made is who offers the cheapest Khukuri wins the contract and the maker and the British Government keeps it secret who makes the #1 #2 for the Gurkha intake so from year to year anyone of the Khukuri house's could be making the #1 #2 Khukuri's for the Gurkha units
I'm not familiar with Tora Blades. I do use this knife a lot for chopping saplings and a camp knife it is always on my back back and has not given me any problems
Tora Blades is known to be the most historically accurate khukuri maker on the current market. They appeal to people who want to hold the most authentic khukuri they can get out of Nepal. So they have smaller handles, a rat tail tang and are generally lighter than all the other khukuri makers. Not always the best, but they can say their khukuris are the most authentic khukuris around. Recently though most people tout them as the best khukuri manufacturer or tied with the best. Ex-Gurka Khukuri House appeals to a different kind of customer. They have the largest selection of khukuris around. They do make some historic style khukuris but take more creative license with their khukuris by doing things like serrating the spine of the blade, putting a finger guard on the khukuri or completely restyling the handle in a more westernized fashion. So you can say that these khukuris are more "customizable" and that appeals to people because many of their khukuris actually look and feel way different than one another. The khukuris shown in this video is on the tame side and is more traditional in appearance. And then there is Himalayan Imports who started out making historically accurate khukuris but have since "improved" upon that design by making their khukuris thicker and giving them a full tang. They are heavy and have the most heft while also being damn near indestructible. They also have the best customer service around (EGKH is also good for this as well). Khukuri Palace is fourth khukuri manufacturer in today's market and I do not know their stock well enough to give an accurate depcition of what they are like. Only pictures and out of the companies I listed above they most resemble Ex-Gurka Khukuri House in the khukuris they display on their page.
One is called chakmak which is used as sharpner n thicker in shape And the other is called karda which is use to cut fruits shape like apple , vegetables potato and for skinning meat
+asdfghjkl Hi Yes I have cleared brush with it chopping oak saplings 2" thick and clearing vines the knife is amazing. I carry the knife with me everytime we go into the woods it is a great camp tool. I'll make a video of using it.
The only thing I can see that this knife lacks is a full tang construction. The rat tail construction is supposed to hold up for 5-8 years but it can be re-fit. I just think the knife's shape seems to increase it chopping power. I thought the design of the handle would let it slip out of your hand. But I have used it a lot and it actually helps you hold it. I'm pretty happy with the knife I take it with me when ever we hike. A pair of leather work gloves is better than bare handed but for the occasional use in the woods it is fine. If I buy another one House of Kukri has a full tang model
They are both horn. Their markings are a little different. The quality is the same on both knives. I still use both of them to this day. I do need some horn dressing for both of them
@@ricaldrich3424 I was on about the way the horn is sticking proud of the brass, on the top one it's not. they are other wise the same quality. One kept highly polished for parade the other not. I used to go and watch them making the Khukuris after school. That was in Dahran one of the best places we lived. Oh the good ond days.
Ex-Gurka Khukuri House makes some nice khukuris, but they aren't the only ones on the market. Tora Blades, Himalayan Imports and Khukuri Palace are their competitors. If you want to be a return customer to Ex-Gurka Khukuri House there is no shame in that and you can ignore the rest of this comment. But if you are interested in seeing what else is on the market I will leave the websites for each of the makers down below. Himalayan Imports: yhst-7333098713883.stores.yahoo.net/index.html Tora Blades: torablades.com/shop/index.php Khukuri Palace: khukuripalace.com/ I cannot speak much about Khukuri Palace. I do not know anyone who I trust who owns one and reviews of their khukuris are practically non-existent (this can be good or bad). Tora Blades I know quite a few with some of their khukuris. Early in the company's history they have a quality control problem, but ever since 2015 when they found a new Kami (the guy who makes the khukuris) they have been putting out a good and reliable product again. And I personally own a Himalayan Imports Khukuri and can say that it is solidly built, a tad heavy, but is a great khukuri to own.
You should. Try to get a khukuri from each of the major khukuri makers to find what you like best in your khukuri. Tora Blades is very rigid in their design philosophy where every blade is within a 28-34 cm length and have a 500-750 gram weight limit and a few other things. They avoid adding the frills most other khukuri manufacturers seem to be doing and their khukuris are nearly identical to one anotheras a result of this but its a tried and true design and they are sticking with it. I wish I could recommend you one in particular but I know someone who might be a really good person to ask. There is a youtube channel on here with the handle "sweetcostarica." Tora Blades Khukuris are his preferred khukuri maker and he has a lot of them that he reviews on his channel. Give him a visit and maybe reach out to him and see if he can point you in the right direction.
It's a rat tail tang that go's all the way through the handle and is peened over on the pommel. this is the traditional method of making these knives I have beat the hell out of mine without a problem
HI you can order from the link below. The prices have gone up but still a great knife. I still have the 2 I bought and they are used regularly for splitting and chopping www.khukurihouseonline.com/category/gurkha-kukris-knives

I have 5 of them. All from different Gorkha Regiments. They are very impressive and beautiful knives.
That's great!

thats great it is a very nice knife
I am from India I have original khukri used in war almost 150 years old I am so much proud
And wait that's bigger than this
These knives are worth every cent for the way there made.I bought a Custom Randall knives Bowie for $950 and waited 5 years.Bought my serv No.1 kukri for $75 and got it in a month and beat the hell out of it and not a chip in the blade
I agree I have beat mine to death. It's always on my backpack. Still as solid and sharp as the day I bought.
Kukri is the most badass weapon of all time
I have a 2012 Khukuri House Parade Kukri too. It’s on display in our bedroom on a Khukuri House Stand. It’s more or less identical to yours.
I like the idea of displaying it on a stand. They are great knives My duty knife hangs on my backpack and I use it for bushcraft chores. I carry the other one in my car wedged between the seats. But I like the idea of displaying it on a stand. I need to find a stand. Thanks for the idea!

You whenever a kukri is unsheathed it should taste blood.
That isn't actually true, it's a misconception borne of ignorance (not your personal ignorance, just a general misunderstanding of the truth).
