ESK GROUP ESK 12” Gorka Itihaas Kukri Features
-
Historic Khukri: This is a real Kukri. This design dates back a century and was carried by Gurkhas in collaboration with the British Army, which gained a reputation in both Allied and enemy forces during World War I. This Kukri Design turned out to be one of the deadly and highly effective short combat weapons with a very sharp blade and its enormous cutting power. The design is still famous and highly regarded by soldiers and collectors around the world.
-
Heavy Duty Arched Design: With a 12” sharp blade and 6” handle this is a large Kukri truly used during the war. It curves nicely from the tip to the handle without the angled tip. The handle is curved inward and has a flared pommel and a raised strap in the center for improved grip. The strap prevents your fingers from slipping over the blade, prevents hand injuries, and the flared pattern prevents the weapon from swinging outwards. The end of the handle has a lanyard for the hand strap.
