Classic Sirupate Kukri

The Classic Sirupate Kukri is a traditional Nepali khukuri design, prized for its slim, leaf-like blade profile that makes it lighter, faster, and easier to handle than heavier kukri styles. The name “Sirupate” comes from the siru grass leaf, which the blade closely resembles in shape. Historically carried by villagers and warriors alike, the Sirupate kukri has long been valued for its versatility—capable of clearing brush, chopping wood, or serving as a reliable sidearm in battle.

This hand-forged Classic Sirupate features a 14-inch blade crafted from 5160 high carbon steel (leaf spring of truck). Each blade is water-tempered for durability and sharpened to a fine edge, ensuring excellent cutting power with balanced agility. The full-tang construction and rosewood handle provide strength and comfort, while the included leather-covered wooden scabbard ensures safe carry. Built to honor Nepal’s forging heritage, this kukri is both a functional working blade and a collector’s piece.
