Any of us that own a traditional quality khukuri love them even more after watching true craftsmanship like this gentleman displayed! Thank you for the dedication the craft!
@@kailashblades I can't find that comment, however you did resolve the issue in an awesome way that I didn't expect and I REALLY need to do a follow up video on how you took care of it now that I .home and once this massive head cold clears up!
Don‘t wait any longer and order one while you can. I would say that among the top handmade khukuri houses in Nepal Kailash Blades is one of your safest bets. Customer service and communication with their great Andrew Lucas are top notch, and you will quickly feel like you are in really good hands.
All the info is great! It's amazing seeing how precise those hammer strokes are to take a rough piece of metal and form it into the exact shape and size needed. And at no point does a measuring stick come into play! My one critique of the video was the text. I had to pause the video a whole lot because the text was hard to read over the gray/white background and the text would transition faster than I could read it. I recommend using a font one or two sizes larger and a higher contrasting color for the text (maybe blue or yellow?). Thanks for showcasing a "behind the scenes look" into the small details of how a khukuri is made!
Thanks for the feedback! Unfortunately with the video editing software that we use we don't have much control over text colour and size- it's white by default and size automatically shrinks if we put more words into the text box. I'll look into if there's a decent cloud based alternative for the next one because it can be clunky to use at times also. Take care, Andrew and the team at Kailash.
YES. this is great! I wish I could have found this video sooner. I've been trying to make one myself out of 20ga brass sheet, and having quite a hard time. All of the other videos I've seen are terrible- skipping steps in the process, and lousy unfocused camera work. Yours is excellent. I'm going to start anew with a fresh piece, and this time I feel much more confident. My brother-in-law gifted me a full-tang kukri that had no bolster, so just for fun I am modifying it into a more traditional style rat-tail tang with brass bolster and buttcap (although I am doing stacked leather rather than wood/horn) PS- I love your work. The more I see your kukris, the more impressed I am! I appreciate your attention to detail and your presentation on the website is second to none. My next kukri purchase will be from Kailash. (probably a Mutiny!) Keep up the good work!
@@kailashblades pls answer this question is it the one with the contact on your website and do i order the blade and then send you the messege trough your website?
Nice, do you have one smith who goes from a chunk of leaf spring to a finished khukuri, or do the smiths just do one process then pass on to the next smith?
One smith handles the entire blade. However we do have specialised sheath makers, and the micarta wrap/ stacked leather processes are handled by other team members before being handed back for finishing.
We can yes, however shipping costs for just a bolster will be quite high. We will also need accurate dimensions of your blade's ricasso area to ensure a good fit. In short- it's expensive and sifficult so maybe not worth doing
hello bro hamro video hamro yubtube channel ma cha..hamro factory satodobata nakhipot ma cha.for more details you can visit to our website facebook . thank you
Not really- the copper starts in a very annealed state. The major work gets out of the way first while soft and the extra rigidity helps keep the finer changes subtle. Such a nice part of the khukuri making process.
Watching his hand flipping and turning the bolster around was amazing.
Thank you for the educational content!
You're very welcome! Thanks for the support :)
Fascinating.

like this gentleman displayed!
Thank you for the dedication the craft!
Thanks for the kind words!
Awesome!
cheers!
Art with canvas and paints is nice.
But art with steel and fire is absolutely grand!
Awesome! Traditional Khukuri making is a craft in its own right....quite a bit different from the rest of the custom-knives industry.
Good stuff! Of all the khukuri houses I have delt with so far you are one of the few that may warrant repeated business!
Cheers! I left a comment on one of your videos regarding the inclusion- please let me know the situation and I'll help out as quickly as I can

Amazing work 👍
Cheers!
I’m very close to buying one of your Kukri. I’m in Australia and only hear good things about your tools. 🙏🏼
Use a Kailash Blade and Silky Saw ;)
They are fantastic. I have one I use to replace my axe when I am dropping trees and it literally replaced my light axe. Excellent work.

That's great to hear! If you have any questions or need some guidance don't be afraid to reach out.

Yeah, he's done that once or twice...
Making it look extremely easy!
shipping is available in India?
Unfortunately not sorry- it is not possible due to indian customs laws

Yet again, skill over rides technology...and not a black thumbnail to be seen. Don't seem to be getting any significant work hardening of the copper?
Not really- the copper starts in a very annealed state. The major work gets out of the way first while soft and the extra rigidity helps keep the finer changes subtle. Such a nice part of the khukuri making process.
