Short Khopesh Sword

Khopesh Short Sword – 14-Inch Hand-Forged Egyptian Curved Blade | 5160 Steel, Full Tang with Rosewood Handle + Leather Scabbard 

The Khopesh Short Sword is a powerful and functional interpretation of the ancient Egyptian sickle-sword, reimagined for modern use. Featuring a 14-inch forward-curved blade, this weapon was historically used to slash and hook enemies in close combat while symbolizing authority in battle. At Everest Forge, we bring this ancient legacy back to life using traditional Nepali blacksmithing.

Each blade is hand-forged from 5160 high-carbon steel, recycled from truck leaf springs—valued for its toughness, flexibility, and ability to retain a sharp edge. The forging process includes precise shaping, water tempering for strength, and a polished, sharpened finish. With a 6-inch full tang rosewood handle, this short sword offers a balanced, ergonomic grip for both collectors and functional users.

Perfect for jungle work, bushcraft, survival, or historical reenactments, the Khopesh Short Sword is built to perform while honoring its origins.
