What people says about us.
Hello Sanjay, I just wanted to let you know that I have received my Khukuri blade this morning, and I must say it is an extreme work of art. I am so pleased with this piece that I will be placing an order for another kukri blade in the next day or so. And I also like the Ghurka hat, it shows quality and craftsmanship. The blade, there are no words to describe the quality and craftsmanship, it is truly a work of art. And also a great piece of history. Thank you Sanjay, and once again, I could not be happier with this blade. It is so
Much better made than the most expensive knives I have. Your people are truly great and honorable people, and not just for knives but just the pride and honor that you have in anything you do. 

Regards Joe

i have bought several khukuri blades from khukuri blades and will only buy from khukuri house thamel. i always deal with sanjay who is always very friendly helpfull and very professional. i have had the pleasure of working with the gurkha whilst in the parachute regiment in the 60s so i know what a khukuri is and how it performs. for anyone thinking of buying a khukuri you will buy from sanjay with the knowledge that you are buying a genuine khukuri. thankyou very much sanjay for your unwavering service. kindest regards  brian oxfordshire united kingdom.

The knife arrived. I cannot tell you how beautiful this weapon is. The workmanship, history and energy of this knife are breathtaking. I am amazed at the balance and quality. The Ghurkas are heros in my opinion. When/If my article gets published I will make sure you get a copy.

Your friend forever,

Dear Sirs,

Greetings from a rainy England. With reference to my recent  order No: KH 933. The order arrive today. I was amazed at the quality of the workmanship and the prompt and efficient service i have received.The Khukuri is a splendid addition to my collection and i shall recommend you to my friends.

Thankyou once again.
Kind regards

Dear Sanjay:   My "Whacker" safely arrived yesterday and it lives up to all your claims of high quality; it's a beautiful tool! Thank-you for the brass letter opener; it now lives on the table next to my antique Tibetan fire-steel pouch. Thank-you for the prompt and courteous service in sending the khukuri.

One question: If I order more than one khukuri at a time would the shipping costs be substantially lower than buying them separately? (I may start a small collection).

All my weeds tremble in the face of the "Whacker"!

Thanks again, and Namaste,

Hi Sanjay,

Hi Sanjay,
Just thought I should let you know, I recieved all 7 of my new kukris today, and they are all exceptional! I was suprised at how heavy the 18" is and the carving on it is exactly as I'd hoped. I was also very pleased that you wrapped them the same as you did when I was in your store in Thamel. I'm very happy with the kukris, the quick shipping and the over-all service that you provided. Please extend my thanks to the rest of your staff, I wish you the best of luck, and I look forward to future purchases with you. I will recommend you to everyone I know who wishes they could have one of my Kukris!

Namaste,

Sanjay Hi,
All three have reached me safely & in good order - with DHL.   Much thanks.   I need to do a bit of work to ease the Afghan in its sheath and the Whacker will be a perfect tool for splitting firewood.  Many thanks too for enclosing the headgear, which will have a special name in Nepal?
Thank you again for the speedy delivery of the blades.
Best wishes for continued success - Martin/ Malta

Hello Sanjay,
I received my blade today and it looks amazing the carvings and the quality of the blade itself is very good it's also well weighted and feels and looks great to handle.
when it arrived i was happy at how securely and well presented the blade was in the parcel it arrived coated in a thin layer of oil that was easy to get off the blade, also the Nepalese newspaper is nice touch too!.
The stand is very strong even to the point that i had trouble getting the actual stand parts in the cut out slots on the base but that said i'd personally rather it that way as i'm 110% confident that if i ever accidentally bump into my shelf at night knowing that the stand wont fall apart and drop a 1.5KG blade on my foot :) .
Everything about your service is fast and you answered all my questions spot-on and without hassle and was always really polite and helpful and i am sure that i will use your website if i ever want or need to purchase another Khukuri again!.....

Also thank all your workers/staff and mainly the people who helped craft my blade as it looks outstanding to the point that i ask myself and wonder how could someone make something this good by hand?..... its a true lost art!

Thanks..... Connor

Just had my blades deliverd and i fell in love straight away with them they are amazing i will be back next month to buy more,i collect knives and swords and these are my favorite the smell of leather when i opened them is fantastic i cant thank you enough well i can ill buy more and recamend you to as many people as possible.

thanks again all the best James Wright

Sanjay,

The Angkhola supreme and stand arrived today. Thank you so much! the blade is razor sharp and quite heavy. I am very impressed with the quality, it is obviously hand made and the kukri is awsome, it is in perfect shape, packed well, and read for serious use. Thanks again for the great blade, and customer service.

Sanjay,
I received my Angkhola Supreme today.  Put me on the list of 100% Satisfied Customers.  Wow is all I can say. I am an avid fighting knife collector.  This is a weapon, a very very serious weapon.I can honestly say that I was a little skeptical about the quality and workmanship of this weapon.  Once I unwrapped it and held this beast in my hand any
skepticism I had was gone.  This is a finely made weapon that is meant for rugged abuse. If any of your potential clients have any sort of reservation about the quality of the craftsmanship of your knives let me tell them this.  The quality of workmanship that goes into these knives is outstanding.  I was extremely impressed, my knife collecting friends were extremely impressed and I will have my second order to Sanjay very soon.Thank you for your craftsmanship and if you want to put any
of this on your website please feel free.

The kurkis you sent are indeed impressive. Functional and robust, they are a fine example of the knifemakers art. I am happy to see that your shop sells real kukris and not tourist souvenirs.

Hi Sanjay, received Kukiris thank you, very impressed with the quality and presentation we love them, will defiantly reccomend you and will come to you for any future orders, thanks once again.

An avid wilderness survival enthusiast dissatisfied with the performance of commercially available outdoor knives, I wrote to Sanjay asking if he was open to producing a custom knife to my specifications. He gladly accepted, and his team  of expert Craftsmen immediately began working with me to create the best knife I have ever owned. I have used it for everything from chopping and splitting wood for fire, making tinder, cutting Paracord and numerous other tasks. It performs as well or better than knives three and four times above its price point. I have used nearly thirty different knives in the field over the last twenty years and out of all of them, Sanjay's is my favorite. 

Throughout the production process he kept me updated with photographs and prompt communications and much more quickly than expected the finished product arrived at my door. 

For the last three years I have used the knife made by Sanjay almost exclusively. Expert craftsmanship, fast shipping and top-notch service make Khukuri House Thamel my first and most-trusted choice.

Many thanks to Sanjay and company for all your work. 

Hello Sanjay,

Today I received the khukuri blades by TNT courier here in Australia.   I am very happy with the items and look forward to ordering more from you in the future.   You have a very professional company, from your excellent communication to the way you wrap the khukuri blades.  I am very impressed.

Thank you for the complimentary letter opener, and your excellent service.

Sanjay, my friend!
My three blades arrived today!
What a joy to come home from work to find the package on my doorstep, TWO DAYS after you said it had shipped! Two days from Nepal to Seattle,WA, USA is simply amazing!
I unpacked them, (lovely wrapping paper too!) and cleaned the shipping oils off them and now, two hours later, I am still amazed at the quality and care which has obviously gone into the creation of these wonderful Khukris!
I’ve just returned from a expedition to my back garden where I was attacked by a small 5cm tree, which was defeated with four swift strokes from the Jungle Model blade!
Once again, I am So Very Pleased with the service I’ve received from you and your craftsmen! My regards to Mr. Lama, as well!
Be well, my friends!

Sanjay i received the Eli khukri today and when i opened i was completely amazed on the craftsmanship,quality,and so forth fantastic blade this khukri is amazing i'm spreading the word on the quality of this blade to everyone i know Thank You ...........

Dear Sanjay Lama,

To let you know that my Khukuri arrived today, and it was worth the short wait! I had been looking for a while for a Khukuri that could replace the ones passed through my family that unfortunately were destroyed in a flood. The one I bought from you, Jungle Afghanistan, has certainly gone towards it. The scabbard is also lovely and rugged. I will definately be buying another from your shop. Please pass on my regards to your staff. If you want to put this on your testimonials, then please do.

All the best to you all at Khukuri House Thamel.
