SiruPate (Slender)

Last week I received my Chitlange, my fifth KHHI kukri and as fine a blade as I've ever owned. My wife handled it and was very impressed. She mentioned that she would prefer something a bit lighter and shorter, and I knew the Sirupate would be perfect for her. Thankfully the USA depot still had them in stock and I received it five days before her birthday. I couldn't wait that long to give it to her and she is absolutely delighted with it. It's the perfect size and weight for her, and I found it every bit as pleasant to handle as she did. It's a light, quick, lively blade that still has commendable reach. It hits like a hammer but is also light and dextrous enough for delicate work. I would recommend this to anyone unsure about what to choose as a first kukri. As always, fit and finish are unsurpassed by anyone in this price range. The karda and chakmak are functional tools rather than afterthought placeholders, and the scabbard is secure and well appointed with thick, supple leather. My wife and I wish to extend our sincere appreciation to craftsman Bir Bahadur B.K. and family, and to all at KHHI for sharing your passion for this art with the world.

Received my order today. It tooked about two weeks. All my khukuris were well packaged and oiled. I'm very impressed with the SiruPate (Slender). The craftsmanship is excellent and the edge is very sharp. The kami is "R." He did a fine job and I couldn't find any imperfections! This khukuri will definitely excel in combat (self-defense) which is what why I ordered it. A big "Thank You" to kami R and KHHI. I am very pleased and will be ordering some more khukuris soon : )

I've heard good things about Khukuri House for years, and it's all true! My SuriPate is nicer than I ever expected it to be. The Karda and Chakmak are well finished and fit nicely into the sheath. The edge on my SuriPate is amazingly sharp and the narrower blade moves and balances flawlessly. The finish is great, the sheath is snug but not over tight, and the shipping was faster than I'd hoped for. Thank you for sharing your talents and skills with us all!

Its the first one I bought and I'm very happy with it, I bought it with a classic sheath that looks amazing. I can't believe the quality for the price. 5/5 would buy again!

I have just received my new Sirupate Khukuri today. I and super happy withe the quality of the workmanship of the Blade black smith and scabbard maker. I highly recommend KHHI to any one wanting a hand made quality knife at a fantastic price. This knife will be accompanying me on my hunting , camping and fishing trips. Thank you KHHI.

Hello the team!

We have well received the 2 Kukhuris, an Angkhola 17", a Sirupate 12". Of course, I give you a quick feedback, without time and hard abuse experience, but as it is not the first time we buy knives to your company, I am quite confident.

Sirupate:

The sheath is flat, secure.  Brown frog with black leather sheath makes a beautiful combinaison. The Karda and Chakmak are useful. It is rare enough to be mention. Thanks for that!  The Kukhuri by itself is a masterpiece. Not too less, not too much. The tip of the blade is a stabber. Also a point that is rare enough to mention! The only thing to say about this knife is that it looks near to what I considere" Perfection".

Now the Angkhola:

Kydex and leather sheath, both perfect. The edge is not too convex, razor sharp, with a dangerous tip at the end. Same comment than for the Sirupate's: Nice!
The handle is a little bit too large for my hand, but as I know you have big men customers and it is easier to polish a bit than to add on material, I do not feel right to complain about.

Bene and I are very happy with your work and custom relations.

Thank you for all that.

And per advance, thank you for the pleasure we will have to use this tools!

Padma.

If you're looking for a khukuri, you can't go wrong buying from KHHI. When I bought mine in June 2020 Nepal just ended lockdown, and shipping was delayed because KHHI had to catch up on orders after having to close. KHHI takes timeliness very seriously, and because shipping was delayed for reasons outside their control, they added in an RGR pin for free to everyone who ordered during that time. They also did a giveaway of 3 BSI 2020 khukuris. Customer support was really nice. I emailed a question about shipping and they were quick to reply. I ordered this sirupate style khukuri because it's a heavier duty blade that's good all around, but it's also nice and light too. They say this style is used by farmers in rural Nepal. Thought it would be the best choice personally because I'm studying agriculture in university, and do work in that kind of setting. Only have had it a few days but used it to break down tree branches in the yard, and it works beautifully. Incredible craftsmanship and sturdiness, fits snug in the sheath. Where I live, handmade knives of this quality easily go for 200 usd. Great value, you get the same shiny blade you see on the website. Please thank Mr. Bir Bahadur for this beautiful piece. I also bought the khukuri keychain add-on when ordering. It's handmade and looks really nice on my keys. Would recommend that too if you're interested. Namaste from California .

I love chopping with my sirupate khukuri. It is lighter than most other models but still chops well. Here chopping a seasoned piece of log up. The handle is so comfortable I don’t feel any hot spot on my hand.

Embarrassing myself by showing how horrible I am at feathering a stick with a very fine sirupate khukuri from @khhinepal. The khukuri is well made, and this one is thin and light. It is razor sharp too and so I thought it would be great to try doing some finer work with it, like feathering a stick here. Sadly my skills and finesse at controlling a bigger knife didn’t do the knife justice and I was fighting to get the angle right so it would slice instead of pry the wood shavings off. I still need more practice but I am getting there. Do you guys struggle to get feathers done with a larger blade?

That guy (me) is not sexy, but the Sirupate khukuri from KHHI on his belt is SEXY! This is one great looking khukuri and at only 10” blade length, and a spine of only 5mm thick it sure is a great tool for jungle clearing. I just love the feel of this khukuri in my hand. It’s well balanced and doesn’t weigh me down even though I had it on my belt a whole day. The handle is extremely comfortable too with no hot spot even after some heavy chopping.

Just received my three kukri order, super fast shipping. I'm very impressed with the build quality of this kukri, the handle is perfectly shaped to fit the handle, and the balance is perfect. I ordered a left handed sheath with it, and was able to add a khaki wrap and brown leather frog, like what comes with the khaki issue, at a later date. Very happy with the team at Khhi!

Received my Sirupate Slender today, and it is a very nice kukri. Was very surprised and pleased with the fast turn around. Also pleased after taking measurements that, the blade measured a full 10.25 inch long blade, but only weighed 493 g. Very pleased with the product, and I will for sure be ordering a different model soon.

Hello my Friend Saroj,

I have just received my Sirupate and once again  I congratulate you and your staff on another well made product from KHHI.

I would like you to thank your staff but especially thank Parshuram Biswakarma for his skills in producing this fine product of my Sirupate style Khukuri.

just as an addition to my last message regarding the new Sirupate.  It is very well built and with the hollow grind blade it feels both light enough in weight and also strong and robust enough for practical use!

I personally think it is a good idea to push the idea for a hollow grind blade for those people who intend to use their khukuris in a practical / outdoor environment.

I know this is more work from the Kamis and more expensive from a buyer’s point of view but well worth it. I am sure an additional section in your website explaining how a hollow grind can reduce the weight and balance the khukuri making it more easy to handle would bring in further sales !

Kind regard,
