Description
Cold Steel’s Gurkha Kukri honours the legendary Nepalese fighting knife with a deeply recurved blade forged from 1055 carbon steel. The Kray-Ex handle absorbs impact vibration while the blade’s forward weight delivers devastating chopping cuts. Includes a Cor-Ex sheath with Secure-Ex belt loop.

The Gurkha’s Companion
The forward-weighted blade arcs through the air with purpose, landing with a decisive thwack that splits cordwood and clears brush in equal measure.
Camp chores become almost meditative—each swing channels centuries of Nepalese utility into your grip.
A Legacy in Carbon Steel
Cold Steel forges the blade from 1055 carbon steel, a grade chosen for its shock resistance and ease of field sharpening on a simple stone.
The Kray-Ex handle is injection-moulded to dampen vibration, preserving your hand through hours of sustained chopping work.

Knife Care & Maintenance
Keep your blade performing at its best. Rinse and dry after each use to prevent corrosion. Apply a thin coat of mineral oil to the blade periodically. Sharpen with a whetstone or honing rod at a consistent angle. Store in a sheath, knife roll, or magnetic strip — never loose in a drawer. For carbon and Damascus steel, wipe after contact with acidic foods. For folding knives, clean the pivot area and apply a drop of lubricant to ensure smooth deployment.
