Rare beauty. There are not many superlatives to describe this incredible Kukri style knife. This is the result of a personal project by Browning's tactical expert Jared Wihongi. And it shows.
This knife is more than ordinary. A kukri is a traditional Nepalese knife. It has a unique, inwardly curved blade, and functions very similar to a machete. In practice it is used as both a tool and as a weapon in Nepal. Traditionally it was, and in many cases still is, the basic utility knife of the Nepalese people.
