Kukri

The Kukri or Khukuri (Devanāgarī: खुकुरी) is a heavy, curved Nepalese knife used as both tool and weapon. It is also a part of the regimental weaponry and heraldry of Gurkha fighters. It is known to many people as simply the "Gurkha knife". It is slightly deflected at an angle of 20° though some examples have a very steep angle. It is 3 to 10 centimetres high, the length is 30 cm onwards, tapering towards the edge from the broad upper margin. It almost always has a single edge and almost never has a "false edge". It usually has a very thick spine and in many ways is a hybrid between knife and axe.

Sarquiss's "Big Knife" bears a resemblence to kukri.
