13-Inch Gurkha Angkhola Kukri – Rosewood Handle
The 13-Inch Gurkha Angkhola Kukri is a powerful and balanced utility knife, hand-forged in Nepal from 5160 high carbon steel. Its signature fuller lightens the blade without sacrificing strength, making it ideal for heavy-duty chopping, bushcraft, or survival use. The carved rosewood handle ensures a firm, comfortable grip, while its sleek polish adds to its traditional charm.
Features

Historical Significance
This kukri is a fusion of the classic Angkhola design—known for its weight-reducing fuller—and the Budhunay flat blade profile. Both styles have deep roots in Nepali craftsmanship and were historically used by Gurkha soldiers in close-quarters combat and rugged terrain.
