Engraved Bhojpure Khukuri – Traditional Nepalese Kukri with Horn Handle & Dragon-Temple Blade Art

The Engraved Bhojpure Khukuri brings together the powerful utility of Nepal’s most iconic village kukri with the rich symbolism of hand-engraved artistry. Originating from Bhojpur, this version elevates the traditional 10-inch Bhojpure design by featuring a dragon and temple motif engraved on the blade, symbolizing strength, protection, and spiritual harmony.

Hand-forged from high carbon 5160 steel and water-tempered for edge retention, this kukri retains the broad belly and chopping strength that Bhojpure blades are known for. Its 5-inch water buffalo horn handle offers a striking traditional grip, perfectly balanced with the engraved blade’s refined appearance.

More than just a working blade, this version of the Bhojpure Khukuri serves as a functional piece of Nepalese heritage — ideal for collectors, spiritual practitioners, or anyone seeking a daily tool with meaning. The engraving of a protective dragon and temple pays homage to Nepalese beliefs where khukuris are not only tools, but sacred symbols of prosperity and guardianship.
