Kukhri Knife – Dhran Nepal 87
This is a traditional Kukhri knife, manufactured by Dhran Nepal, stamped with the model number 87. The knife features a curved blade designed for both chopping and thrusting, typical of those used by Gurkha soldiers. The handle is constructed from wood and features brass detailing, providing a secure and comfortable grip. The knife is accompanied by a leather scabbard, designed to protect the blade and allow for easy carrying.

This Kukhri knife exhibits signs of age and use, consistent with its likely history. The blade shows some patina and wear, while the wooden handle and leather scabbard display expected wear and tear. This knife would be of interest to collectors of military memorabilia, ethnographic arms and armour, or those interested in Gurkha history and culture.
