PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
The Recurve Kukri Hunting Knife takes the forward-curved kukri shape and adds a clip point at the tip, giving the blade two distinct working zones in one piece of steel. The deep recurve belly pulls weight toward the lower half of the blade, delivering serious chopping force with minimal effort. The clipped tip shifts the balance toward precision when the work calls for controlled piercing or detail cuts rather than heavy swings.
Wood-grain Damascus runs vertically across the steel in clean, flowing lines, creating a pattern that catches light differently depending on how the blade sits. At 10 inches, this blade is long enough to handle clearing, chopping, and field dressing without needing a second tool alongside it. A dark steel collar guards the junction between blade and handle, keeping the hand positioned safely behind the cutting edge during hard use.
The dark rosewood handle tapers toward the pommel, narrowing naturally to fit the grip as it closes. No pins interrupt the surface — the handle relies on the full tang construction and fitted collar for its strength. A brown leather sheath ships with the knife, ready for field carry on a belt.
Recurve Kukri Hunting Knife at JW Steel Crafts, combining a wood-grain Damascus blade, clip point tip, dark rosewood handle, and steel collar guard in one piece.
The History Behind This Blade
Recurved kukri blades trace back generations, built for fieldwork where a straight blade simply couldn't deliver enough chopping power. Damascus forging is older still, with wood-grain patterns emerging from the careful folding of layered steel. Rosewood handles have long been favored for their density and natural resistance to wear. JW Steel Crafts forges this blade by hand, combining the recurve shape with a clip point for added field versatility.
Blade Performance
Wood-grain Damascus steel holds a sharp edge through repeated heavy outdoor use. The deep recurve belly concentrates cutting force toward the lower half of the blade. The clip point at the tip shifts the balance for controlled piercing and detail work. Full tang construction keeps the blade steady and balanced through forceful swings. As high-carbon steel, the blade benefits from regular oiling to stay rust-free between uses.
Handle Construction
Dark rosewood tapers toward the pommel in a smooth, rounded profile built for a secure grip. A steel collar sits at the base of the blade, guarding the hand and adding structural strength at the transition point. Full tang construction runs the entire length of the handle for added rigidity. The absence of surface pins gives the handle a clean, uninterrupted look against the dark wood grain. Rosewood's natural density holds up well under the repeated impact that kukri-style chopping puts on a handle.
Best Used For
This knife handles heavy outdoor chopping tasks where a standard blade runs short of power. The clip point makes it useful for field dressing and detail work that a blunt kukri tip can't manage as cleanly. Hunters and campers will find it covers more tasks than most single blades in its size range. Collectors are drawn to the wood-grain Damascus pattern and the clean, uncluttered handle design. As a gift, it suits hunters, outdoor enthusiasts, and collectors who appreciate a versatile hand-forged blade.

I'm very pleased with this tent after having it for two years I've been in the rain I've been in the snow and it's held up pretty good but the cover that covers it did not hold up that good but the tent is perfect
Really enjoy the awning. Easy setup and got a little rain on the first trip. Easy to adjust for the run off. Very happy with the purchase!
I am one of the earliest customers Astrodome, I bought it and didn’t set it up for almost a year. By the time we set it up, we were blown away by the beauty of this space we purchased it on a mountain ledge in our glamping retreat in Lake County California two hours north of San as much as I love this space there are definitely some challenges with it in our location. It might work better than other locations, but we have had problems with the stakes, slipping and collapsing in the ground beneath and with the prevailing winds, it did stay up and it stays dry, even in tornadoes, but because the wind hits it from One Direction coming from the coast, this is definitely been a challenge for us we are going to try adding some weight inside it. The guests absolutely love this space keep in mind that with those skylights it’s going to get hot in the summertime but what’s nice is in the winter. It heats up almost passive solar. it’s also wonderful with a woodstove. A very cost effective alternative to a geodesic dome! If you want to experience it stay in ours, on Hipcamp.
I bought one of these at Scheels and absolutely love it. Great design, has everything you would ever need in a first aid/trauma/survival kit. Have one in all of my vehicles now. These guys truly thought of everything
A complete coverage of possibilities for my project and needs.
I love my new tent stove. Costumer service was also attentive and great to work with. Thank you.
The mounts work perfect with the truck bed rack I have on. Thank you for the excellent line of communication. You guys never kept me in the dark. I will ordering from you guys again.
I was wondering if you are able to sell just two extra mounts or do they just come in a set of six.
The color was even better in person. For well, looks well made and was easy to fold up and put into the carrying case. There was a bunch of colored plastic pieces from manufacturing on the mat, but I was able to vacuum it right up so be careful pulling it out.
Although it took a little extra time the delay very of my OVS Truck Topper was great. Good price too!
Fully engaged with customer, helped me get the crossbar I needed on time!
Product worked out great for my rack setup.
Order was delayed due to manufacturer delays, but my questions were answered and expectations on timing reset along the way. Cross bars were in perfect condition and work great!
I was in the market for a 3/4 length roof rack for my 4Runner as I wanted an upgrade from the OEM rails but still wanted to retain a somewhat OEM look. I am very happy that I went with the Sherpa Needle. It is a high quality rack with the best install method out of all the racks I looked at. I like that it is designed so you don’t have to deal with a mess of silicone when mounting. It is also nice that the fairing sits just above the roof instead of resting on it so that the paint does not get scratched. I was worried about wind noise because of this but I am happy to say there is no added wind noise at all.
I am also glad I purchased this rack through Live More Outside. I shopped around and they had the best pricing considering I was able to get a discount code, shipping was free, and they don’t charge sales tax. Shipping was prompt and I received the rack sooner than I thought I would.
Overall I am very pleased with this purchase and I will definitely come back to Live More Outside as I continue to build my rig.
By far one of the best customer service! Nathan has been a huge help on any questions and quick to respond! Live more outside is top notch. We are getting ready to hit our first outing with our new RTT. Cant wait to test it out. We also just purchased a 270 awning. I found one on another website but wanted to keep my business with live more outside. Nathan price matched and beat their price! We will continue to keep our business with this company!
