Introduction

The kukri is designed mainly for chopping but it can also be used to stab. The shape varies a great deal from being quite straight to highly curved with angled or smooth spines. There are substantial variations in dimensions and blade thickness, depending on intended tasks, and also by region of origin and producing kami. As a general guide the spines vary from 5-10mm by the handle, and can taper to 2mm by the point, and blade lengths can vary from 26–38 cm for general use.

The kukri knife is designed for general purpose is commonly 16 to 18 inches (around 40–45 cm) in overall length and weighs one to two pounds (around 450-900 grams). Bigger examples are impractical for everyday use and are rarely found except in collections or as ceremonial weapons. Smaller ones are of more limited utility, but very easy to carry.

Another factors:

Another factor that affects a kukri's weight and balance is the construction of the blade, such as it being hollow forged, tin chira (triple fuller), dui chira (double fuller), angkhola (single fuller), or basic non tapered spines with large bevel edge.
