Khukuri
Khukuri originated in ancinent times, the khukuri is not only the national knife of Himalayan kingdom of Nepal but is also symbolic of the Gurkha solders. The awesome cutting edge of the Khukuris was first experienced by the British in India who had to face it in the well-documented battles since 1814 while combating the Gorkha army in western Nepal. Khukuri is all-purpose knife of the hill peoples of Nepal, especially the Magars and Gurungs in the west, and the Rais and Limbus in the east. These peoples are called the Gurkhas who form the formidable Brigades of Gurkhas both in the British and Indian Armies, not talking of the Royal Nepal Army itself. Khukuri is a medium-length curved knife each Gurkha soldier carries with him in uniform and in battle. In his grip, khukuri is a formidable razor-shape weapon and a cutting tool. In fact, it is an extension of his arm. When his rifle misfires, or when his bullets have run out, a Gurkha unsheathes his Khukuri and makes his final “do-ir-die” run on the enemy in a fury to finish the business. This scene created the romance and the legends. What it really did, and still does, is a superclean slaughter. The enemy tumbles down in two clean pieces and is surprise! Because of the kindest, quietest death. The khukuri is not only the national knife but also has great religious importance and is worshipped by the Nepalese during the grand Hindu festival Dashain.
