Descrizione
Join a small-group workshop in Kathmandu and craft your own Gurkha knife. Learn about the history of the Khukuri, work alongside a master blacksmith, and take home a handmade souvenir.
Begin your experience with a convenient pickup from your hotel in Kathmandu. Head to the workshop and meet a master blacksmith with over 40 years of experience. Learn about the history and cultural importance of the Khukuri knife, a symbol of Nepalese heritage.
Get hands-on as you help transform raw iron into a personalized 6-inch blade using traditional forging techniques. Hammer the heated metal, assist with the initial grinding, and take part in the final buffing and polishing. For safety, the expert completes the fine grinding and any other steps that require specialist skill.
Help assemble the handle and leave with your own handmade Khukuri and a protective knife cover. Enjoy tea or water and snacks during the workshop. You can also choose to upgrade to a horn or bone cover for an extra cost.
After the workshop, relax as you are dropped off back at your hotel.
