Series Khukuris
(*Catastrophic Structural Damage)
CSD
CSD-Micro
The
Nepalese Khukuri has long been aknowledged as one of the finest tools
and fighting knives in the world. The Gurka warriors of Nepal
have used these formidable knives to great effect in conflicts spanning
the globe but thay are also used throughout Nepal as an everyday tool
as well. It's hard to improve on success- but if we didn't try
we'd still be living in caves. There are many fine traditional
khukuris on the market already but I am introducing this new line of
'modern' khukuris to give the modern soldier or outdoorsman an option
of having modern materials, ergonomics and features while retaining the
traditional
form and function of the legendary Khukuri.
CSD Khukuris from TPT will feature removable scales of either G10
or exotic hardwoods. The selectively-hardened, 3/8 inch thick
5160 spring steel
blades are convex-ground to a zero-edge, handles are full-profile and
are a full 3/8 inch
thick. Blades are offerred in either 'Bright' finish or
Parkerized finish. Leather or Kydex scabbards are
available. Configuration and pricing of these Knives will be
listed as the
information becomes available.
Two models will be available initially-
the original CSD (shown above-)
The CSD features an 8-1/2 inch long blade with an upswept point
The CSD-Micro features a 5-3/4 inch blade and a compact, ergonomic
handle shape. You can see the CSD-Micro in action HERE
