V for versatile, V for vicious, V for victor, V for vim and V for value, and ‘Series’, because this version of KH’s elite khukuris come in series of sizes of blades ranging from 7 inch to 12 inch long, thus the name has been given so to properly personify the khukuris.

The unusual almost semi-circle (Crescent) shape of the khukuri without shoulder and peak is forged for easier handling, better performance and to create a more practical cutting tool. The shape of the V series is not so curved as that of a khukuri shape thus it facilitates the cutting and chopping activities further better. On top of that the blade has a style of its own, never done before in any other knives by KH. The blade has a unique feature with two large divisions, the bevel and panel. The large elongate bevel is unpolished where as the panel that run across the body to the riccasso is highly polished. This finishing of V series is strange yet stylish plus carries a good reason behind. Since the bevel is unfinished it skips the long harsh process of getting polished as a result the temper (hardening) retains, holds back in the blade as it was when tempering hence the edge remains as strong and rigid. On the other hand the panel is highly polished, means some temper is withdrawn intentionally as it gets heated when getting polished. The Panel thus becomes little softer, providing cushion to the bevel. When the blade is stroke against a target, the bevel penetrates through while the panel gives the needed suspension to the bevel so that force generated in the action can be minimized, lessening tension to the bevel. This new method of finishing the blade has proven very successful and satisfactory.

Handle of V series is a simple wooden handle with full flat tang fixture that would simply provide good grip and last long. The handle is further reinforced with steel rivets to improve the fixture. A lanyard hole facility is also in place; for a leather thong to go through it and round the using hand’s wrist. The contours, ridges, surfaces and the handle itself is made thicker to provide comfortable grip even for big hands.

The V series has a beautiful reddish brown leather scabbard made to go with the overall look of the khukuri. A white metal chap compliments the dashing and dangerous look of the knife. A set of special Karda + Chakmak accompanies the V series to further boost the ability and value of this extra ordinary khukuri knife unleashed by KH.
