Hey guys ,
im obsessed with nepalese kukri , but im not able to buy one online cause the sellers email me saying due to the customs rules in india they are not able to ship it :? , except one website www,thekhukurihouse.com , but what disturbs me is they say theres a chance customs will confiscate it and i may loose my money like that or by luck i might just simply get it shipped

how do i buy khukuri blades to india by online ordering?
or
im from banglore , do we get khukuri from any sellers in banglore?
im an outdoor freak , really into trekking so i need the real deal , not replicas :D

I am lusting after a Sirupate and I have asked a watchmen near my house from Nepal to pick one for me. Realistically, it will be a lot easier to get hold of a local blacksmith, keep a keen note on the quenching and materials used.

Khukris are great knives and serve their owners well.
However, for trekking, I would pick something significantly smaller.
A Khukri has limited uses for a hiker. It is like using a bulldozer to dig a hole to plant a flower.
It will work but...

Please also consider the laws against carrying a knife as large as that.
It could get you in trouble and/or result in the confiscation of the knife.

You can buy kukris from ex gurkha khukri house. Owner is himal giri and Ishwor raj giri. I trust these guys. I visited nepal and bought 3 chirra kukri and a 6 inch black kukri, bring them to my home in U.P. . Checkout this link https://nepalkhukurihouse.com/ .
One thing more bro if you visit their store in nepal then you find the same kukris very cheap there.

Visit Darjeeling you will find shops in nehuru bazzar that sell quality kukhris. Some had yalk horn Handel's too. if you can differentiate between quality one and tourist junk then buy one
