Complete Specifications

The J2 Steel Kukri Blade

The blade is forged from J2 steel and mirror polished to a bright silver finish. The wide curved upswept Kukri profile gives a powerful chopping belly and a sharp upswept tip. A fuller runs along the spine side of the blade reducing weight while maintaining strength. The steel guard features a distinctive upward hook that provides a secure grip and prevents the hand from slipping forward. The steel bolster sits at the base of the blade for added balance and durability.

The Black Leather Wrapped Handle

The handle is wrapped in black leather cord tightly wound from base to top. Gold/brass accent rings at the top and bottom of the wrap add a premium decorative detail. A steel pommel cap at the top of the handle completes the build. The hidden tang construction keeps the handle profile clean and slim. The leather wrap provides a secure, comfortable grip in wet or dry conditions.

The Basket Weave Leather Sheath

The sheath is crafted from black leather with a basket weave embossed tooling pattern covering the full surface. Black stitching runs along all edges. Two silver snap buttons secure the belt loop flap. The sheath protects the blade during storage and carry and can be worn on a belt.
