Custom Kukri and Khukuri Forge Request
Build your own custom kukri or khukuri with Everest Forge. We specialize in hand forged Gurkha knives made to order for real use, collection, and personal projects. Whether you want a traditional Nepalese kukri, a modern survival blade, or a fully custom design, we can forge it to your specifications.
The kukri, also known as khukuri or Gurkha knife, is one of the most effective curved blades in the world. Known for its forward weight and strong chopping power, it is widely used for bushcraft, hunting, outdoor work, and heavy-duty tasks. With our custom forge service, you can request a kukri that matches your exact purpose, balance, and style.
Design a Custom Kukri That Matches Your Purpose
Every customer has a different goal. Some want a working kukri for chopping wood, clearing bushes, camp use, or survival tasks. Others want a custom Gurkha knife for collection, display, or gifting. Some prefer traditional Nepalese patterns, while others request modern full tang kukri builds with guards, upgraded handle ergonomics, and specific finishing details.
With Everest Forge, you are not limited to standard catalog designs. You can request a kukri built around your measurements, weight preference, balance, blade shape, and visual style.

Hand Forged Kukri Built for Real Use
Our kukri collection is built around real working blades, not decorative factory-made pieces. Each hand forged kukri from Everest Forge is designed for outdoor use, bushcraft, field tasks, and heavy-duty cutting.
Because each kukri is handmade, slight variation in finish, weight, and detail is normal. That is part of the authenticity and character of a real forged blade.
