This knife is sold on this website, under "Trekkers Knife" http://www.nepalkhukurihouse.com/

This knife is sold as the "Trekker's Knife" and also the "Arms Police Force Special Black Knife." I call it the Nepali Ka-Bar, because it is obviously the product of local blacksmiths making their version of a Ka-Bar USMC. It is a crude looking, yet strong and brutal knife made with tough steel. This knife would be right at home in the worst situations ... think Road Warrior, Walking Dead, or Blackhawk Down.
