18-Inch Falcata Kopis Sword-Machete – Hand Forged

The 18-inch Falcata Kopis Sword-Machete from Everest Forge blends the striking elegance of an ancient sword with the raw utility of a functional machete. Inspired by the historic Greek kopis and Iberian falcata swords, this forward-curved, single-edged blade was originally designed for battle and chopping force. Today, it's hand forged in Nepal using high-carbon steel and traditional blacksmithing methods to serve both as a powerful cutting tool and a historical collector’s sword.

Whether you're clearing dense jungle, chopping wood, or displaying it as a replica of ancient warfare, this full-sized falcata kopis performs as both a combat-style sword and a heavy-duty outdoor machete. Its water-tempered edge ensures lasting durability, while the 6-inch full tang rosewood handle offers a solid grip and classic look. A leather-covered scabbard ensures safe carrying and storage.

Historical Background:
