Chainpure Whiteout Khukuri/Kukri – 16-Inch Traditional Blade with Whitewood Handle

The Chainpure Whiteout Khukuri is a bold reimagining of one of Nepal’s most iconic traditional blades. Retaining the historic no-notch blade profile of the Chainpure kukri, this version has been extended to a full 16 inches for added reach and impact. Combined with a whitewood handle and white buffalo leather scabbard, it offers both performance and visibility in outdoor or wilderness settings.

Chainpure kukris are known for their clean, flowing blade design—crafted without the traditional notch near the base of the blade. This stylistic trait comes from Chainpur in eastern Nepal and is a symbol of regional forging heritage. The Whiteout version takes this simplicity and scales it up for modern use, whether clearing dense brush, chopping wood, or defending in the wild. The longer blade makes it a powerful working knife or machete-style kukri.

The 16-inch blade is hand-forged from 5160 high carbon steel and water-tempered for strength and edge retention. A 6-inch whitewood handle offers a cool-to-the-touch, secure grip ideal for warm or harsh environments. The white buffalo leather scabbard over wood is built for durability and ease of carry, and the khukuri includes Karda and Chakmak tools for field use and blade maintenance.
