The kukri is the staple weapon of all Gurkha military regiments and units throughout the world, so much so that some English-speakers refer to the weapon as a "Gurkha blade" or "Gurkha knife". The kukri often appears in Nepalese and Indian Gorkha heraldry and is used in many traditional, Hindu -centric rites such as wedding ceremonies.
The words Gurkha and Kukri (Khukuri) go together: you cannot say one without the other. Their story is incomplete without each other.
The Gurkhas and the Kukri became famous during the First and Second World Wars. The Kukri has been better known as "The Gurkha Knife" since those days.
