The BUSHCRAFT MK 3 is based on the Official Standard Issue MK3 Kukri of WW2 and has been
adapated for Bushcrafting and Hunting. It has a "Ang Khola" style blade characterised by its hollow ground upper part and a long bevel allowing deep lethal cuts into meats, fresh wood and other things while your in nature.
It is a development from our Classical MK3 (12") and Outdoor MK3 (10" blade), the BUSHCRAFT MK3 KUKRI
has a 10" long blade made with new high carbon steel. Besides Bushcrafting it makes a excellent fighting and hunting knife. For hardwood, bone chopping, batoning and such we recommed the Outdoor MK3 and/or the Classical MK3 as it has a shorter bevel.
All our kukris and knives are hand forged and given a optimum heat treat. The hexagonal wooden handle which gives a very secure grip allowing both the regular and new user comfort in use. Heritage Knives is the first knife maker in Nepal to offer a hexagonal handle, which is based on private purchase Kukri´s of the WW2 era.
The Bushcraft MK3 is well suited for various tasks in nature, from jungle to forrest, from mountains to plains and is of course in Full tang. It is a ideal companion for a active life in nature when you need a Kukri knife that you will use alot.
Standard finish is Satin/Utility but we do offer Mirror polish as well if you prefer (+10 usd).
