Condor King Kukri Machete CTK1820-12.5HC

Condor King Kukri Machete

Smashing onto the scene is a gorilla-sized kukri. Condor modeled this out of larger kukri examples from different regions in Nepal and took a special fuller out of the middle (often referred to as a chirra) to give the large 320mm blade a good amount of balance. Condor paid special attention to tapers, curves, and skeletonising of the 152mm handle to make the 6.0mm thick blade usable for anyone. Like most Condors, the King Kukri Machete comes with a full-grain leather sheath.
