The unique name and the design…
独特的名称和设计…

Chukuri is the unique and most fascinating knife Khukuri House Handicraft Industry has ever designed and produced. It is actually the combination or experiment of the two most common knives of Nepal,  “Churi” and “Kukri” and hence the name. The shape, style, and features show both the parental characters at it’s best. The spine of the Chukuri with sharp edge at the head section reflects the character taken from a “Churi” and the front arch belly portion from a “Khukuri”. This unusual yet striking shape with sharp edges on both sides make this a unique masterpiece that can be an honest tool, a loyal friend or an enemy’s worst nightmare. The combination of beauty and the beast of two famous authentic knives, have made this knife an exceptional experiment of indisputable supremacy.
珠库里是廓尔喀之家里工艺设计和生产的最独特、最迷人的刀具。它实际上是对尼泊尔两种最常见的刀具“Churi”和“Kukri”的融合或尝试，因此得名。珠库里在形状、风格和特色方面都完美地展现了这两把刀的特色。珠库里的脊柱头部带有锋利的边缘，反映了 Churi 刀的特征，而弓形腹部则源于廓尔喀弯刀。两侧的锋利刀刃融合在一起，构成了一个独特而引人注目的形状，使这把刀成为了一个无所不能的杰作，因为它既可以作为诚实的工具，又是忠实的朋友，同时也是敌人的梦魇。这把刀集结了两把著名刀具的美与凶悍，使其成为一项无可争议的至高无上的实验。

Chukuri is originally designed, created, manufactured, and released by Khukuri House Handicraft Industry (KHHI) Nepal on 10th Aug 2006. After the huge success of eagle handle kukri with handle guard, KHHI designed this knife with more special specs, features, and functionalities. Chukuri rolled out the market with a great hit and the same design is copied and sold by almost all the Nepalese kukri house (vendors). 
廓尔喀刀最初由尼泊尔的廓尔喀之家手工艺工业 (KHHI) 于 2006 年 8 月 10 日设计、生产和发布。 在带护手的鹰头廓尔喀刀大获成功后，KHHI 设计了这款功能更加多样、特色更加鲜明的刀具。 廓尔喀刀一经推出便引起轰动，其设计几乎被所有尼泊尔的廓尔喀刀供应商复制和销售。

Which features make Chukuri a ‘special Hybrid knife’ ?
楚库里作为一把“特殊的混合刀”，有哪些特点呢？

Blade:: It has high carbon steel as in all khukuris with a twist at the head portion as seen in the picture. This curve is also made sharp and much more pointed at the tip for piercing and tearing apart through upward movement. Chukuri is both a hacking and stabbing maniac. The major attraction of this knife is the spine of the blade with dual sharp edges. 
该刀片采用高碳钢，如所有廓尔喀弯刀一样，头部有一段扭曲，如图所示。 此曲线也经过打磨，尖端更加尖锐，便于向上穿刺和撕裂。 曲刃既是砍劈狂魔，又是刺杀狂魔。 这把刀最大的特点是刀脊双刃。

Handle:: Special handle is designed for heavy stressful assignments, swiftness and safety. Typical khukuri shaped handle is replaced by KHHI’s exclusive handle where the top front portion is erected from the actual surface/level to protect the using handle; the erected contour will ensure the hand stays restricted within the handle so it can be prevented from slipping towards the sharp edge of the khukuri blade. The design and shape of the handle is crafted to give the best possible and fast handling. The full flat tang goes all the way through the handle, glued to the buffalo horn pieces and further riveted to strengthen the whole fixture. The regular butt cap (pommel) is discarded but the naked tang pops out of the handle where a circular hole is made as a lanyard hole (wrist cord). Water buffalo horn is used for the handle to match with the special scabbard of the “Chukuri”.
手柄：： 特殊手柄设计用于繁重的高压作业，快速且安全。传统的弯刀形手柄被 KHHI 专用手柄取代，手柄上部前沿从实际表面/水平面竖起，以保护使用者的手； 竖起的轮廓确保手保持在手柄内，防止其滑向弯刀刀刃的锋利边缘。手柄的设计和形状经过精心设计，以提供最佳和最快的操控性。完整的扁平刀柄贯穿整个手柄，粘在水牛角片上，并进一步铆接以加强整个夹具。常规的尾帽（柄头）被舍弃，但裸露的刀柄从手柄中伸出，在那里做了一个圆形孔作为挂绳孔（腕带）。 水牛角被用来制作刀柄，以便与“Chukuri”的特殊刀鞘相匹配。

Scabbard:: Chukuri comes with a normal buffalo leather scabbard for strength and durability. A leather cord is also fitted to hold the knife firmly in the user’s thigh to prevent from wobbling while in motion. It has a single frog loop for the belt to go through as depicted in the picture. Unlike other knives, the two small knives (Karda and Chakmak) are completely discarded to make the knife as light as possible to carry around; an extra benefit to the user.
庫庫里配有一個正常的黃牛皮刀鞘，以確保強度和耐用性。為了防止刀在移動時晃動，還安裝了一根皮繩，將刀牢牢地固定在使用者的大腿上。如圖所示，它有一個用於穿过皮帶的單蛙環。與其他刀不同，两把小刀（卡尔达和查克马克）被完全弃用，以尽可能减轻刀的重量，便于携带；这对使用者来说是一个额外的好处。
