Kindajal Short Sword – Hand-Forged Caucasian Blade | Everest Forge

Inspired by the iconic double-edged blades of the Caucasus region, the Kindajal Short Sword — also known as the Khanjali or Qama — was traditionally carried by warriors from Georgia, Dagestan, and surrounding cultures. Revered for its strength and symbolism, the Kindajal is a powerful blend of form and function.

This version features a 17-inch hand-forged blade made from high-quality 5160 carbon steel leaf spring.

Sharpened and semi-polished, it is ready for practical use or display straight out of the box.
