Default Specification
The overwhelming success of the “Raw Panawal” (raw black blade), convinced and pressed KHHI crew to come up with yet another similar version, based on the basics of Raw Panawal, but improvised and modified, which is the “AngPana for Jungle”.
The unique and interesting name “AngPana” is actually the merging of two kukri terms together. The famous and functional kukri types Angkhola( having fuller in the blade) and Panawal (Full flat tang with rivets) are kept mixed up to give a unique name. Here the composition goes like this, Ang is taken from AngKhola and Pana from Panawal kept together to make it AngPana.
“AngPana for Jungle” is creatively and specially designed for hostile Jungle territories and its behavior where one would not know what another minute would deliver or confront. Enough reach and coverage of 12 inches of the blade, unpolished horn handle with a single broad flat ridge for better grip and green leather scabbard for look and strength are all the special features of the “AngPana” that distinct the kukri from the rest, that define this powerful jungle operational kukri.
The Blade
AngPana has a black (raw) blade having semi fuller or layer (hump) running across the main (above) panel of the blade. It is made so to give more strength and durability to the width of the blade while in use and also to cut down the unnecessary weight of the blade. The curvature will also give much needed support to the flat surface by evenly distributing the impact force created when striking against a target. It is also a display of true craftsmanship as it is very difficult to craft.
Handle
The handle of this kukri is made like that of the famous “Panawals” version (the name also says) where the flat tang goes all the way through the handle, and silver (Aluminum) rivets are fitted to strengthen the fixtures. The metal tang can also be clearly seen on the two sides of the handle. Unpolished buffalo horn is used to give an overall matching look and sturdiness. A single broad flat ridge is furnished for better grip, to make holding easier and non slippery.
A green leather scabbard with a black frog gives a perfect camouflage and a handsome “Junglee” (wild) look. Junglee is a term used to denote the inhabitants in the jungles, most commonly used in the Indian Sub Continent.

What a beast
I must admit to a small amount of trepidation when ordering my “Woodcutter Heavy Log” Kukuri especially after the item seemed to disappear off the website the next day but it turned out to be due to a name change ? The new name AngPana Jungle is much more artistic but does not change the fact this is a beast. The craftsmanship is amazing and I have no concern about how or what I choose to use it for, the commercially available knives/Machete available here are rubbish. Please thank Mr Mangaldhanmy for his skill, my son is so impressed he is looking to place an order now. I am amazed that something so fine can be created in Nepal and shipped to me here in Ballarat within 3 weeks, sales staff were very friendly and understanding when responding to my requests for updates and the photos provided a lot of reassurance. I will be ordering again, next time I will think to order a left handed Scabbard ? Darrin Ballarat Australia

Firstly, I do not take the time to write reviews as I am usually receiving a mass produced product which is adequate for purpose.
However, I am compelled to write this one as you have exceeded my expectations and your company deserves recognition for producing craftsman made high quality products.
I have been very impressed with my dealings with your company.
From placing the order to delivery (sooner than expected) the process was very smooth and I received exactly what I ordered, the quality of your blade and construction of my Kukri shows passion and belief in what your company does, it is excellent.
I unwrapped just last night with some friends and all were impressed with care in packaging and of course the high quality product that you have created.
I enjoyed the additional support material & CV of the craftsman (thank you Rakchhu) who created my Kukri as it adds an interesting personal touch.
I would recommend your company and products to anyone wishing to own a high quality individual piece produced by people with great pride and skill.
Thank you

Mr. Saroj,
I have just opened the box with the contents of the Angpana inside and it just blows my mind! I am convinced this blade will serve me till the end of time and then some. I can't find enough words to express how happy i am to own your product.
Mr. Bhim Bahadur Kami (Shivraj) the craftsman who created this work of art? Please tell that man i am VERY proud to own a piece of his work.

I do believe i will order the black ops. from you soon, simply because i am hooked on your work.
Thank you,
