Kukri

Good day to all gentlemen!

A lot of time has passed, but there were no mods from me. I was busy (preparing for exams, writing tests, taking exams), but now I am free and will continue my activities.

This time I present to you my new work - the Kukri knife.

Kukri is the national form of the knife used by the Nepalese Gurkhas. The kukri blade has a characteristic “falcon wing” profile with sharpening along a concave edge (that is, it is a knife with the so-called “reverse bend”). It is believed that the kukri comes from the Greek kopis, which has a similar curve, and hit

to Nepal with the army of Alexander the Great in the 4th century BC. e. Regardless of the source of origin, the kukri is one of the most ancient types of edged weapons that have survived to this day without major changes.
