This 12 inch long bladed khukuri becomes a vital tool and an effective weapon when “Just to Survive” or “Live to tell the Story” becomes the only ambition of a life. One of the strongest contenders of KHHI’s “Survival Series”, this khukuri with its practical and powerful feature makes it possible for the holder to surpass the ordeal, endure the hostility and tackle the uncertainty when one is all by himself in a helpless and hopeless situation. Nick named as the “Alive”, it will definitely make its master’s life easier and better because of its amazing appetite to serve and save in every way possible.
The blade is unpolished on practical and usage ground since it is basically intended as a utility knife and its shape follows like that of the famous and traditional “World War” khukuri used by Gurkhas with an eye to upholding the proud khukuri history, but more importantly for effective and efficient outcome. Similarly the special handle composes the khukuri as a complete “Survival” knife or what we call at KHHI a “PURFECT” knife as the handle is constructed very durable and dainty by giving extra time and effort. The metal tang is full and flat that goes all the way through the wooden handle and further reinforced by rivets on both sides to boost the whole fittings. Steel bolster and butt cap are also fixed to the handle for smart look, sturdy grip and longer lifespan.
The 12 inch Survival comes with normal traditional buffalo leather scabbard, however, the interior wooden frame is flat with sharp bends to facilitate swift operation of the blade. Steel chape is completely discarded so stabbing into flesh can be prevented while carrying the khukuri. It comes with two special small knives, “Karda” and “Chakmak” surpassing the regular ones like in most khukuris. Special attention is given to these knives so that they are equally useful like its mother blade.
A basic cutting tool that can be used for just about anything – one that comes very handy far out in the woods and even at your own backyard. A must for adventure seekers, nature explorers, wild surfers and die hard collectors.
