Gurkha Kukri Chopping Test (1080p HD)

This is a cheap $30 Gurkha Kukri replica made in Pakistan. Lots of people say that it is junk but I had to give it a shot to see if its worth the $30 price tag. It was easy to get it sharp with a file, a stone and a kitchen steel. It held its edge admirably after this chop test and I will try to give it a long term review once it gets more abuse. The bad things about this blade is its poor ergonomics on the handle and the poor retention of the sheath. As the sheath can be replace, you are stuck with the handle unless you can spend a significant amount of time at a grinder to reshape it.

@Buddymack917 ... check out Windlass Steelcraft. they specialize in heavy duty blades for military use, plus their prices are very reasonable.

[axeofgod72]

i love the kukri design (got the Ka-Bar model), but i'd never purchase a pakistani blade... the quality of their steel is pretty bad.

How effective would it be if it were made of Tungsten?

[PETE1760]

Men you you waste to mush time next time get to the chopping.

[Buddymack917]

I like it, I pay good money for hand made knives made in America but would like to find a supplier for these that is not a knock off or ceremonial, I am looking for functional value.

[RyanColePinkyBoy]

[ryeanmol]
