Cold Steel Lynn Thompson Collection Gurkha Kukri Fixed Blade Knife - 13.00" Carbon V High-Carbon Steel Blade - Black Polypropylene Handles (CHLT00133)
Overview & Heritage: The Cold Steel Lynn Thompson Collection Gurkha Kukri (CHLT00133) pays homage to the legendary design vision of Cold Steel founder Lynn C. Thompson. Celebrating decades of pioneering broad, high-impact tactical fixed blades and heavy outdoor chopping tools, this specialized collector's edition brings back Cold Steel's celebrated Carbon V high-carbon steel in a broad, 13.00-inch forward-curved kukri profile. Engineered for extreme chopping efficiency, wilderness clearance, and collector display, the CHLT00133 combines traditional Nepalese chopping geometry with indestructible modern synthetic handle construction.
Blade & Performance: Featuring a massive 13.00-inch forward-curved blade forged from legendary Carbon V tool-grade carbon steel, the CHLT00133 delivers extraordinary impact toughness, edge holding capability, and raw chopping force. The blade's distinct forward weight bias concentrates momentum directly at the point of impact, enabling it to easily out-chop conventional axes, hatchets, and camp machetes. Precision flat-ground with a thick spine, this blade excels at heavy timber clearing, shelter building, game processing, and survival chores.
Handle, Lock & Ergonomics: Built around a full-length broad tang chassis, the handle scales are precision-molded from high-impact, weather-proof Black polypropylene. Engineered with deep ergonomic palm swells, subtle finger grooves, and a flared pommel, the handle ensures total retention during high-velocity chopping swings. Equipped with an integrated lanyard pass-through hole for secondary safety wrist straps, the Lynn Thompson Edition Gurkha Kukri comes complete with a heavy-duty tactical sheath for secure field transport and storage.
*Bench Notes & Field Care Guidance:*
Carbon V is a high-carbon tool steel celebrated for legendary impact toughness and incredible edge sharpness retention. As a true carbon steel, it requires proper maintenance to prevent surface oxidation. After field use or chopping tasks, wipe the blade clean and thoroughly dry all steel surfaces. Apply a thin protective coat of high-grade synthetic oil or mineral oil before storage. Wash the polypropylene handle scales using warm water and mild dish soap as needed.
