Late 20th-Century Nepalese Hardwood and Brass Mounted Kukri Knife with Scabbard and Two Accessory Knives - A late 20th-century Nepalese kukri knife, featuring a forward-curving steel blade with a traditional thick spine and a kaudi notch at the base. The blade is decorated with extensive etching depicting a stylised dragon and a temple structure, with an etched mark at the base reading 'HAND MADE IN NEPAL'. The hilt is constructed from polished hardwood with traditional central carved rings for grip, fitted with a brass bolster and a flared pommel capped with a brass plate, secured by a diamond-shaped washer and peened tang. The wooden scabbard is covered in black leather, featuring a brass chape and integral pouches housing the two original accessory tools: a karda utility knife and a chakmak sharpening steel, both finished with matching hardwood handles.
