Khopesh Machete – 16 Inch Hand-Forged Egyptian Sword | Full Tang Rosewood Handle | Sharpened & Tempered
The Khopesh Machete revives the iconic sickle-shaped weapon of ancient Egypt, forged with strength, purpose, and heritage. Handcrafted in Nepal by the skilled blacksmiths of Everest Forge, this 16-inch blade draws inspiration from the battlefield weapons used by pharaohs and warriors during Egypt’s New Kingdom.
Each machete is meticulously hand-forged from recycled 5160 leaf spring steel, a high-carbon alloy known for its strength and flexibility. Forged using traditional methods and water-tempered to achieve an ideal hardness, the blade is fully sharpened and ready for field use—ideal for jungle clearing, camp work, or historical reenactment.
The ergonomic 6-inch rosewood handle provides a solid grip and excellent balance, while the included scabbard ensures safe storage and transport. This khopesh machete is more than a blade—it’s a piece of living history, crafted for modern hands.
