Survival Chirra Kukri – 12 Inch Full Tang Survival Khukuri

The Survival Chirra Kukri is a rugged working blade built for heavy-duty field use. Its 12-inch blade features a traditional chirra (fuller groove) that reduces weight while maintaining strength, giving excellent balance and cutting efficiency. Hand-forged from 5160 high carbon steel (leaf spring of truck), this kukri is water-tempered for toughness and sharpened for immediate performance. The full tang rosewood handle ensures durability and a secure grip, while the leather scabbard offers safe storage and carry. Designed for survival, bushcraft, and outdoor work, this kukri blends traditional forging with practical modern functionality.
