This is 8 inch blade mini jungle wooden handle Khukuri.This is slightly smaller than standard jungle khukuri, therefore it is called Mini jungle.It is used for small cutting,pruning and similar tasks.The blade is 8″ long and the Indian rose wood handle is 4″ long.The blade comes with highly polished or unpolished.It is normally fit for Gurkhas hand due to its short handle and size.Almost all Nepalese use this knife because of its practical size.This khukuri weighs 500 grams along with the buffalo hide scabbard.It can be engraved with dragon or other design as your choice.The blade comes two pockets on the back of the scabbard which hold a blunt steel called “chakmak” for sharpening the blade or for striking spark from flint and a little knife known as “karda” used for skinning,cutting paper and opening later. The notch (kaura or kaudi) in the blade near the hilt of most khukuris serves as conduit for the blood on the blade to drip out, thus preventing it from soiling the hilt, as well as a device for catching and neutralizing and enemy blade.The handle is more practical, more beautiful. *Specification of 8″ Blade Mini Jungle Kukri: This is handcrafted kukri therefore please note that each one might have slight variations in measurement.

Horrifyingly perfect! This knife is horrifyingly perfect. It’s blade is mildly soft however i think it’s just a coating. The blade is incredibly sharp for knives of this size. The balance is more in the front which I like for knives of this sort. Then again it should be more to the front.

Nice knife, sheath needs work Love the knife, but it doesn’t stay in its sheath for anything…I had to wedge one of the small knives in in order to keep it from sliding out… Add a strap for a knife block and you’ve got a 5 star product
