Survivor Survival Kukri Black | SHOGUN

Survival Kukri | Survivor – Robust bushcraft knife for demanding conditions

The Survival Kukri by Survivor is an impressive bushcraft tool with a distinctive curved shape. This knife with a total length of 38 cm combines traditional kukri design with modern materials such as 3Cr13 stainless steel. With its black coating and ergonomic grip, this is a versatile tool for outdoor enthusiasts.

Experience from the Shogun team

During a weekend trip in the Ardennes, chopping firewood stood out in particular. The kukri blade shape works like a small axe, but the weight of 562 grams did require some getting used to for finer cutting tasks.

Performance and sharpness of this bushcraft knife

The 3 mm thick blade made of 3Cr13 steel is easy to sharpen and reasonably corrosion resistant. With a blade length of 22.86 cm and plain-edge grind, the knife comes razor-sharp out of the box. It chops effortlessly through wood and rope, although the curved shape takes some getting used to for food preparation.

Grip and ease of use

The sturdy handle sits well in the hand, even in wet conditions. The balance point is far forward due to the characteristic kukri blade shape, which makes chopping easier but makes precision work more challenging. As a fixed blade knife, this knife does not require an opening mechanism or locking system.

Who is this bushcraft knife suitable for?

This robust outdoor knife is suited to the adventurous bushcrafter who appreciates powerful tools. For beginners, the 38 cm size can be intimidating. Collectors will value the classic kukri design with modern coated blade finish.

Maintenance and durability

The 3Cr13 material requires regular maintenance – keeping it dry and occasionally oiling it will prevent rust. The black blade finish offers extra protection but may wear with intensive use. Sharpening is straightforward with a standard sharpening stone thanks to the reasonable hardness of this steel.
