Chainpure kukri; a simple, beautiful & functional knife with a wooden scabbard
纯粹的廓尔喀弯刀;一把简单、美观且实用的刀,配有木刀鞘
The Chainpur village in the Eastern part of Nepal where this knife is made has its own exclusive khukuri called the “ChainPure” named after their home village “ChainPur”. Similarly “ChainPure Wooden” is an enhancement of the regular ChainPure to make the knife even more special and exclusive by crafting a simple yet stunning scabbard out of Indian rosewood expertly. Chainpurians use conventional hand tools to craft the wooden scabbard to beautify the whole look of the khukuri. The word “Wooden” is used for the name is denote the wooden scabbard of this kukri knife.
位于尼泊尔东部的 Chainpur 村庄,以其独特的“ChainPure”廓尔喀弯刀而闻名,该刀以其出产地 Chainpur 村命名。同样,”ChainPure Wooden”是对普通 ChainPure 的提升版,通过使用印度紫檀木精心制作的简单而精致的刀鞘,使这款刀更加特别和独特。Chainpurians 使用传统的手工工具制作木刀鞘,美化了整个廓尔喀弯刀的外观。“Wooden”这个词被用于名称中,是为了表示这款廓尔喀弯刀的木刀鞘。
SCABBARD >> Although it is usable (fully functional blade), it is basically a decorative khukuri that represents the true craftsmanship of Chainpur, that is especially made to décor a place. The scabbard is skillfully crafted out of wood and brass fittings are wrapped around to give a handsome look. The general look of the kukri is plain but has a style of its own that appeals an eye for at least a glance.
虽然刀身可以正常使用,但它并非一把实用的军刀,而更像是一件装饰品,展现了 Chainpur 的精湛工艺,专门用于装饰场所。刀鞘由木材和黄铜配件巧妙地制成,包裹起来,使其外观更加美观。弯刀的整体外观朴素,但独具风格,即使是一眼也能吸引目光。
its unique NOTCH (kaudi) >> This typical village kukri has a distinct notch, unlike other kukris. The open notch in most of the kukris is discarded and instead made a see-through hole in the shape of a cow’s hoof, which is holy in Nepal. The hole or notch also symbolizes the “Symbol of Fertility” sign (the OM), when the blade is held upright, believed to be holy as it signifies the great lord “the Shiva. Since all ChainPures are “Hindus” the unique and religious notch is believed to bring good luck, fortune, prosperity, and salvation. A nozzle is also forged just in front of the notch, to work as a blood dripper. A ChainPure khukuri basically is a domestic utility knife for the ChainPures but having a blood dripper is no harm when blood really has to be shed.
独特的卡迪 >> 这把典型的村庄廓尔喀刀有一个独特的缺口,不同于其他廓尔喀刀。大多数廓尔喀刀上的开口缺口被丢弃,取而代之的是一个牛蹄形状的通孔,在尼泊尔被认为是神圣的。当刀刃竖起时,孔或缺口也象征着“生育的象征”(OM),据信它是神圣的,因为它代表着伟大的主“湿婆”。由于所有 ChainPures 都是“印度教徒”,这个独特的宗教缺口被认为会带来好运、财富、繁荣和救赎。缺口正前方还铸造了一个喷嘴,用作滴血器。ChainPure khukuri 基本上是 ChainPures 的一种家用工具刀,但当需要真正流血时,带一个滴血器也无妨。
HANDLE >> Chainpure also has a differently made handle that distinguishes the kukri from others. The regular metallic bolster is discarded and replaced by an ace-shaped keeper to secure the tang at the butt section. The fine contours of the handle also provide an easy and stronghold. Here the handle is crafted simply to match the simple yet attractive looking scabbard.
Chainpure 还有另一种不同的手柄,使廓尔喀刀区别于其他刀具。传统的金属刀柄被一个形状像王牌的固定器取代,用来固定刀柄底部的刀柄。手柄的精细轮廓也提供了一个简单而牢固的抓握。这里的刀柄设计简单,与简单而美观的刀鞘相匹配。

BACKGROUND >> 背景 >>
In the old days and remote places, Kamis (blade maker) even had to make a sheath to fit a khukuri whenever sheath maker (Sarki or Dabbe) was not available. In such condition he would make a simple wooden sheath out of waste wood and whatever local materials he could find. He would prepare an ordinary (makeshift) sheath to house the knife so that it’s easy and safe to carry and keep (leave). This gave birth to this type of khukuri.
在古代和偏远地区,如果没有鞘工(萨尔基或达贝),神(刀匠)甚至不得不自己制作一个刀鞘来装尼泊尔军刀。在这种情况下,他会用边角料和其他能找到的当地材料做一个简单的木鞘。他会准备一个普通(临时)的刀鞘来放置刀,以便于携带和存放(放置)。这由此诞生了这种尼泊尔军刀。
