Historical Significance
The Angkhola kukri design, known for its fuller (groove) running along the blade, originates from Eastern Nepal. Historically used by the Gurkhas, this kukri design enhances cutting power while reducing blade weight. The fusion with Budhunay-style elements offers a unique shape ideal for real-world application and traditional appeal.
