Dharan, East Nepal

Hi carbon tempered steel blade, steel hardness-spine=22-25 RC, belly= 45-46 RC, edge= 54-55 RC, indian rose wood handle, water buffalo leather case

This is the newer and nicer version of the Chainpure. The shape of the knife is made like that of Chainpure, however with a better touch. The forging of the blade from the tip all the way down to the notch makes the Khukuri very special, as this is the hardest part of crafting for the skilled craftsman costing more effort and time. The horn or wooden handle is nicely made for much easier grip. The buffalo leather case is given the newer and nicer touch. The hole at the end of the blade is the trademark of Chainpur village. It signifies the footmark of a cow that is holy in nepal. This new cute size that measures 5 inch blade is the perfect size for hunters, campers and trekkers. It is perfect for pocket or belt size and for small tasks.
