Tora's version of the Fort William Kukri is copied from a 2/8th GR 1903 issued Mk1. It has a blade length of 34cm, a belly depth of 6cm and a wooden stick tang handle. The stick tang is attached by a sunken knut onto the threaded tang as per the original MK1's.
Supplied with 1903 styled scabbard & frog. See the FW Mk1 kukri in action here - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S9q3wQKvJsM.
The Mk1 is probably the most famous and most sought after of all the Mark-issued kukri.
Tora's Ridgeless version (V forged blade) has a rough weight guidance of 650-725g.
Tora kukri are traditional handmade kukri, made in Nepal, and not the usual export and tourist kukri found on many other websites. Tora strives to make kukri to the traditional specifications as per the original models.
For an easy way to sharpen your kukri please watch this video.
We strongly recommend that the wooden parts on all kukri are treated with the appropriate oil and wood treatment prior to use.
Please note that because all of our kukri are hand-made, variances in size, weight, wood colour, chakmak & karda style etc may well occur. You must be 18 yrs and over to purchase any knife or sword.
Please note that the kukri are now sent directly from Nepal.
