Description

Honoring Nepal's iconic blade, the Ghurka knife, this tribute extends to the revered sidearm of Ghurka soldiers. Renowned for their exceptional skills, the British recognized the prowess of the Khukuri, adopting its use within several of their military units.

This finely handcrafted blade is forged and folded in genuine damascus steel, featuring a full, peened tang. The brass bolster and disc end cap seamlessly merge with the carved walnut wood grip, secured by brass pins and a lanyard eye, along with a stunning mosaic pin. Accompanied by a contemporary, genuine leather sheath, the Vega Khukuri flawlessly combines tradition and craftsmanship.
