Prince Nuada Sirupate Khukuri / Kukri - Hellboy II Hand Forged Set with Karda Dagger

Prince Nuada Sirupate Khukuri / Kukri — 16-Inch Hand-Forged Hellboy II Set with Karda Dagger

The Everest Forge Nuada Sirupate Khukuri is a limited collector's two-piece set — combining the legendary Nepalese Sirupate kukri profile with a Hellboy II-inspired Prince Nuada handle aesthetic, and including a matching Karda dagger that's a miniature of Prince Nuada's iconic spear. Hand-forged in Kathmandu from 5160 high carbon spring steel, water-tempered, full-tang construction. 16-inch curved Sirupate blade, 11-inch rosewood handle with ornate gold-tone brass collar (matching the Bethmoora-clan aesthetic), brass-tipped leather scabbard, and Nuada-spear-style Karda dagger included. Total kukri length 27 inches, weight 975 grams.

This is unlike anything else on the market. The Sirupate kukri (also spelled khukuri) is one of the most elegant traditional Nepalese blade profiles — narrow, agile, lightning-fast for slicing. We've paired it with the ornate gold-tone handle aesthetic of Prince Nuada Silverlance from Hellboy II: The Golden Army. And as the Karda (the small companion dagger traditionally included with every kukri), instead of the standard utility knife we forged a miniature Prince Nuada's spear — same gold collar, same leaf blade, same regal aesthetic. The result: a matched two-piece collector's set that looks like it could have been forged for a Nepalese-elven warrior prince.

Note: The Hellboy-inspired design elements are an unofficial, hand-forged tribute / fan creation. Each piece is individually decorated — slight variations in handle design and brass detail are normal. Limited edition, available only from Everest Forge.

The Two-Piece Set — What Makes This Unique

Most Sirupate kukris come with a small utility Karda blade that's purely functional — a tiny utility knife in the scabbard pocket. Most Hellboy II replicas are single weapons. This product combines both into something nobody else makes:

All dimensions and weights are approximate due to the handmade nature of the product. Each piece is hand-forged and individually decorated, so slight variations in handle design and brass detail may occur.

The Sirupate Kukri / Khukuri — Nepal's Elegant Combat Blade

The Sirupate (sometimes written as Siru-pate) is one of the most beloved kukri / khukuri profiles in Nepalese tradition. The name comes from the Siru plant — a tall slender grass native to the Himalayan foothills — whose long narrow leaves the Sirupate blade resembles. Where heavier kukri profiles like the Bhojpure are designed for chopping power, the Sirupate is built for speed, agility, and precision slicing.

For centuries, Sirupate kukris have been the preferred sidearm of Gurkha warriors who needed a blade light enough to carry on long marches but lethal enough to win in close combat. The narrow profile makes the Sirupate exceptionally fast in the hand — ideal for dueling, defensive use, ceremonial display, and combat. The three drilled holes at the heel of the blade are a signature Sirupate detail, while the dual parallel fullers along the spine reduce weight without sacrificing strength.

Our hand-forged Sirupate stays true to this tradition. The only departure is the handle — which we've reimagined with the ornate gold-tone aesthetic of Hellboy II's Prince Nuada Silverlance.

Both the Nepali spelling khukuri and the English transliteration kukri refer to this same family of blades. Our pieces honour the traditional craft regardless of which spelling you use.

The Prince Nuada Connection — Hellboy II Design Language

If you've seen Hellboy II: The Golden Army, you'll recognise this handle design instantly. Director Guillermo del Toro's design team created a distinctive aesthetic for Prince Nuada Silverlance and his Bethmoora Clan: ornate gold-tone metal collars, hand-engraved geometric motifs, leather-wrapped grips, and decorative pommels that suggest ancient elven royalty.

Our Sirupate handle pays direct tribute to this design language. The gold-tone brass collar, the engraved patterns, the leather wrap, the decorative band — all evoke Prince Nuada's signature weapon style. And the included Karda dagger doesn't just match aesthetically — it's literally a miniature of Prince Nuada's spear, complete with leaf-shaped blade and matching gold-tone fittings.

Display this kukri set next to our hand-forged Prince Nuada's Spear, Hellboy II Golden Army Sword, and Hellboy II Khopesh Sword and you'll see they form a unified collection — the kind of arsenal a Bethmoora warlord might actually carry.

Care & Maintenance

After every use: Wipe both blades clean and dry. Apply a thin coat of light oil (mineral oil, camellia oil, or 3-in-1 oil).

Storage: Store in a dry environment. Avoid long-term storage in the leather scabbard. Display stand or wall mount recommended.

Rust spots: Light surface rust is normal on 5160 carbon steel and easily removed with very fine steel wool (#0000 grade) and a few drops of oil.

Sharpening: Use a quality whetstone (1000-grit working) at 22–25 degrees per side. Avoid power grinders, which can ruin the temper.

Brass & gold-tone fittings: Polish occasionally with a soft dry cloth (no abrasives or chemicals). Light tarnish on brass adds character — if removal preferred, use a brass-specific polish.
