Greater Chitlange Defender Kukri/Khukuri – 18" Blade with Guard & Full Tang Handle

The Greater Chitlange Defender Kukri is a powerful two-handed kukri built for serious chopping, survival, and field use. Forged in Nepal, this kukri takes inspiration from the traditional Chitlange style but extends the blade to a commanding 18 inches, matched with an 8-inch full tang handle for maximum reach and power.

The wide curved blade features a bold Chitlange fuller, a deep groove that reduces weight while maintaining the blade’s durability and forward momentum. Its polished finish gives it an elegant yet dangerous presence, while the water-tempered edge delivers excellent hardness and cutting performance for demanding tasks.

The handle is crafted from dark rosewood and shaped in a secure gripper form. A forged steel guard protects the user’s hand during powerful swings, and the full tang construction with rivets ensures rugged reliability. This kukri comes with a traditional wooden-core sheath wrapped in black buffalo leather and includes the standard utility knives: Karda and Chakmak.
