The notch (kaura or kaudi) in the blade near the hilt of most khukuris serves as conduit for the blood on the blade to drip out, thus preventing it from soiling the hilt, as well as a device for catching and neutralizing and enemy blade.The handle is more practical, more beautiful.Two Accessory Knives: The Karda; which has a sharp edge is used for skinning animal hides & the Chakmak which is blunt and is used for sharpening blade.
