Please note - you are placing a pre-order for this kukri.
Tora's Havildar kukri is based on a Kukri carried by a Havildar (Sergeant) in the Gurkhas during the Burma campaign in WW2. His kukri was most likey made by the regimental or battalion armourer to the Havildar's requirement, but also so that it corresponded to Official pattern carry.
The Tora Havildar kukri generally has a 32cm long blade, with a belly of 6cm and a rough weight guideline of 525-600 grams. It has a stick tang horn handle and comes with a military scabbard and military frogs with chakmak & karda utility knives. Please note that the tinder pouch no longer comes with the insert. .

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.

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.
