Early to mid 1900's Nepalese kukri (variant spellings - khukri, khukuri, kukhri) with carved wooden scabbard. A village kukri used as a kitchen and agricultural tool as well as a home defense weapon. The chip-carved wooden scabbard imitates the design of the more commonly seen traditional leather-covered scabbards, and is typical of higher altitude rural areas where leather is scarce. As-forged finish on blade; no provision on the scabbard for accessory knives.
