What is Lahure?
Gurkha Army Soldier back home in Nepal are locally called 'Lahure' or 'Laure' rather than calling them 'Army' or 'Soldier', likewise called 'veteran ' or 'serviceman' in the west. But the history of the word lies more backdated connected to Lahore city, where people used to go for better earnings.
How 'Lahure' Khukuri evovlved?
After completing the 9-10 months of training in Catterick, UK, depending on their skill, performance, education, and other personal qualities, the Commander selects them for a particular unit of 1RGR and 2RGR. Furthermore, they are chosen to undergo jungle training in the dense forest of Brunei. Before departing for this oppressive environment training in Borneo Jungle, boys come back home. During this period they visit KHHI to buy a stronger and better khukuri for this jungle training. They know well that the official issue is not strong enough to withstand the harsh wild jungle conditions, also they don't want to damage and lose the official version, hence they opt for new khukuri for rough use. This is where the 'Lahure' khukuri comes into existence.
Each year when Gurkha boys visit us, everyone has their custom requirements mostly on the size, finishing, and sheath. Mostly they want raw and strong blade, and undamageable sheath, matching the jungle look. Understanding their requirement we at Khukuri House decided to make and release this new model. We believe that this khukuri will solve the problem of finding the right one and will be an easy pick, keeping the Gurkhas' spirit alive.
Blade & Sheath explained
The blade is made similar to the 'Singapore Jungle' version with Chitlange blade profile, raw black finishing but maintaining the standard shape and size of the official issue.
Green micarta is used as a handle material, to match the jungle conditions and keep it undamaged in any weather conditions, where horn and wood cannot provide this flexibility.
Again, the sheath is made from an unbreakable and durable Green Kydex sheet to survive rough jungle conditions. The sheath is further wrapped with 2mtrs of paracord to add both beauty and functionality to the overall khukuri and its purpose.
Where it is used?
During infantry training in the jungle of Brunei where you can hardly move 100mtr in 30 mins, guess how tough you and your weapon need to be..this is where 'Lahure' Khukuri comes into action to hack the way of the Gurkhas and safely complete their mission.
We also would like to wish you all the best and safe training. WE SALUTE YOU ALL !!
P.S. Don't forget to ask for a 10% patriotic discount for everyone in Uniform, exclusive at KHHI.
Must Know: Kydex is a hard material and may cause minor blade scratches upon contact. While we do our best to minimize this, some scratches are unavoidable. We want all our buyers to be aware of this.

Amazing Blades!
I ordered 4 Lahure custom made knives as gifts. They were laser engraved with a custom logo. The communications back and forth to ensure I was getting exactly what I wanted was excellent. They made the long voyage package extremely well and arrived safely. The fit and finish was better than expected. The kydex sheaths fit the knives perfectly and are snug enough to keep the blade secured, but not to tight to make it difficult to draw. I have come to expect the highest standards of craftsmanship, quality and customer service from the Khukuri House.

Costume Lahure
Lahure in panawal with hammer butt brown micarta/kydex,karda and chackmak -Eine massive ballig geschliffene Klinge, die an Stabilität ihresgleichen sucht. Sie steckt wilde Fehlhiebe ebenso klaglos weg, wie harte missglückte Würfe,und zeigt dabei eine Wendigkeit und Führigkeit, die die meisten industriell gefertigten Stücke dieser Art missen lassen. Das "handling" ist einfach exzellent ! Auch wenn härtere Stähle schnittfreudiger sind, wäre dieses Kukhri im outdoor Bereich meine erste Wahl, da sich Haltbarkeit und Schärfbarkeit die Wage halten, und das Schleifen mittels mitgeführtem Wetzstahl's (Chackmak) als problemlos darstellt. Fazit: Funktionalität trifft Spaßfaktor. Absolut Empfehlenswert ! Vielen Dank Herr Kumar Rasaily !

A beautiful and versatile Khukri. Slightly lighter than the Panawal Pro, but nicely balanced. Finishing and the sheath are perfect like everything at KHHI!
