About 18" Blade Cheetlage Superior Light Version Kukri Or
This is 18" Chitlange 7mm Spine Light Version Hunting kukri - Full Tang Blocker Handle traditional farmer khukuri. Chitlang, a small hilly town, is situated in eastern part of Nepal. This type of khukuri is made in that place. Hence it is called Chitlange wooden khukuri. This is the newer, nicer and better version of the Chainpure khukuri. The shape/design of the knife is made like that of the Chainpure however with improved and superior execution. The forging of the blade with large bevel from the tip all the way down to the notch makes the kukri very special and rare as this is a difficult process of crafting even for the skilled craftsman costing him more effort and time. The large elongated bevel is forged to withstand the hardest blow, severe impact and to make cutting easier and more effective.
