Devanagari rendition
I have never (and neither have many other people, I am sure) seen the Devanagari rendition (कुकरी) of Khukuri as written on the page (except on, well, this page.) I am changing it to the more common (and correct) rendition खुकुरी.

Spelling over-correction
"The Khukuri ..... (also sometimes spelled Khukuri or Khukuri..."

Seems someone was overzealous in correcting previous edits.

Why the creater mention indian subcontinent and not county Nepal?
Khukuri is a primary weapons of Nepalese people.I suggest creater to give an exact information about the country of origin. 2400:1A00:BD11:1818:BCD4:231D:5F2A:FB66 (talk) 14:48, 14 June 2022 (UTC)

That it is a common tool in Nepal is irrelevant in finding the origin of the khukuri. Do you have a source to indicate that it conclusively came from Nepal specifically rather than just the Indian subcontinent? Mebigrouxboy (talk) 20:17, 8 July 2022 (UTC)


 * There are no references of any similar implements in any surrounding areas of the subcontinent either. The Khukuri has, by all measures, been exclusively associated with the Nepalese people and region. Srsh101 (talk) 05:41, 23 May 2024 (UTC)
