A good khukuri knife handle should feel solid and well constructed
when you hold it. We suggest you consider a handle style and
material that meets your needs and suits your preference.
Horn Handle
Horn handles are durable under extreme conditions. Fairly
wide variety of horn can be used for handles and some of it
is quite attractive. Khukur knife handles are best done with
water buffalo.
Wooden Handle
Wooden knife handles have been used ever since the invention
of the Khukuri knife. A wooden handle adds beauty to the Khukuri
knife.Woods are organic, warm to the touch, comfortable to hold,
and can be long lasting. Wooden handle exhibit a distinctive
class of fine taste, and throughout time, will always be cherished
for their value. Wooden Handle compliment metals very well.
In knives, they have been, and will always be a standard.
Alluminium Handle
Just like titanium, aluminum is also a nonferrous metal. Commonly
used as handles, aluminum gives the knife a solid feel, without
the extra weight.
Stag
Derived from naturally shed deer antlers. When exposed to open
flame, stag takes on that slightly burnt look. Very elegant
material for small khukuri knife.
