Cold Steel Kukri Machete 13in Carbon Steel Blade with Cor-Ex Sheath CS97KM

Description

Deep in the rugged Himalayas, survival wasn’t optional—it was a way of life. The legendary Gurkha warriors trusted one blade to clear paths, build shelter, and defend what mattered most: the Kukri. That same spirit of purpose and relentless efficiency lives on in the Cold Steel Kukri Machete. From the moment you take it in hand, you can feel the intent behind the design. The weight-forward balance settles naturally into your grip, promising authority with every swing. When dense brush, stubborn vines, or downed limbs stand in your way, this machete doesn’t hesitate. It answers with decisive power, turning hard work into clean progress and transforming obstacles into open ground.

The Cold Steel Kukri Machete is built to be more than a simple cutting tool. With an overall length of 18 inches and a formidable 13-inch blade, it bridges the gap between machete and axe, delivering serious chopping force while retaining the control of a knife. The distinctive kukri curve drives the edge into the material at an optimal angle, allowing it to bite deeper and cut more efficiently than traditional straight-bladed machetes. Each swing works with you, not against you, saving energy while increasing results.

Forged from 1055 carbon steel, the blade measures 2.8 mm thick and is finished with a black baked-on anti-rust matte coating. That treatment helps protect the steel from moisture and corrosion, making it a dependable companion in rain-soaked trails, muddy campsites, or snow-dusted backcountry. The full-tang construction adds confidence when the work gets demanding, while the five-inch polypropylene handle absorbs shock and stays secure in hand during extended use. At just 16 ounces, it offers an impressive balance of strength and carry comfort, and the included heavy-duty Cor-Ex sheath keeps it protected and ready between tasks.

This machete is made for outdoorsmen, survivalists, and property owners who expect real performance without paying for unnecessary flash. It’s equally at home clearing trails, processing firewood, or riding in a go-bag for emergency preparedness. When reliability matters, and failure isn’t an option, the Cold Steel Kukri Machete stands ready to work as hard as you do.
