This utility knife features the classic inward-curving steel blade with a polished surface. The hilt is constructed of dark wood, capped with a cast brass lion-head pommel. The blade shows light wear and minor sharpening marks. Issued to Gurkha soldiers in India during the World War II era, this knife was used for clearing paths and close combat. The lion-head pommel is characteristic of regional Indian variants. The wooden scabbard is covered in black leather and features brass mounts. The hilt shows minor cracks consistent with wood aging.
