Cold Steel Gurkha Kukri Plus in 4034

The Kukri blade, with its markedly downward curved blade, has long been identified with the Gurkha Warriors of Nepal, who have wielded this blade for over 150 years in the service of the British Empire. 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. 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. Finally, a masterfully designed Kraton handle was added to maximize the blade's potential. Perfectly contoured and deeply checkered, it offers a superb non-slip grip and cushions the hand. Each Gurkha Kukri Machete is supplied with a Secure-Ex sheath to protect the blade and allow you to wear it safely and securely.
