KHHI in its long years in business has along with special and unique khukuris made many modern and ultra modern ones that are very well accepted by the public and the associated society. Having said that the OLD SCHOOL boys have always been the BEST and have always bettered and battered the new comers. “Old is GOLD” is the conceptual plan and vision behind the making of the “Raw 3 Chirra (Old School)” Kukri by KHHI. The simple and rugged features yet the essential and the best have always defined the old boys and made them proudly stand tall amongst its new counterparts. Keeping the same sentiment and feelings at heart KHHI has picked up this traditional khukuri that has been the core and pride of the very name, the “KHUKURI” till date – to add versatility to its traditional collection.

Raw 3 Chirra gives a stronger reason as to why one should stick to the old folks that still carry the legacy and is just perfect for those who prefer the old school system over the new fancy and sophisticated ones, performance over beauty and inner strength rather than the outer appearance.

What features make this kukri ‘Old is GOLD’?
这款廓尔喀弯刀究竟有哪些特点，使它成为“旧的是金”？

Blade:: 刀锋：

• 13” long for good reach and coverage
  长达 13 英寸，便于抓握和覆盖
• RAW finishing for durability and strength
  本产品采用 RAW 饰面，以提高其耐用性和强度
• Chirra or Fuller version for power, performance, and beauty [supports the knife physically and technically by equally distributing the impact/pressure felt by the edge when slammed against an object. The shock felt by the edge is evenly distributed in a wavy form to all parts of the blade before it finally reaches the spine (stress cannot go straight to the spine). The chirras also cut down the unnecessary weight of the blade. The “Forging and Grinding” of the Chirra in the blade is a difficult work that requires great skill and hard work which is done by a very qualified craftsman only]
  这种均匀的力分布可以避免冲击直接到达刀脊，进而增强安全性。奇拉版还减少了刀身的许多不必要重量。在刀具制作过程中，对奇拉进行锻造和研磨是非常困难的工作，这需要技艺精湛且经验丰富的工匠才能完成。
