Pronged Kukri Machete with MUK Knife with Wood Handle

The Pronged Kukri Machete with MUK Knife is a two-piece set built around a blade shape that most knives don't attempt. The large machete ends in a forked, pronged tip rather than a single point, a design that increases utility for hooking, trapping, and controlled outdoor tasks. Three blood grooves run the full length of the blade, reducing weight without giving up rigidity. A D-guard crossguard sits at the handle, keeping your grip protected during hard chopping work. The satin-finished steel catches light cleanly along every fuller.

A smaller MUK companion knife comes with the set. It carries the same brown wood handle and silver bolster as the large blade, keeping both pieces visually matched. Two silver pins secure each handle to the full tang blades beneath. Both knives come with a dark brown leather sheath with brass rivets.

The History Behind This Blade

Pronged and forked blade designs trace back to hunting and utility traditions where a single tip wasn't enough. Kukri-style profiles have long been built for heavy outdoor chopping across Asia and beyond. Wood handles have remained a standard in working knives for centuries for their grip and durability. JW Steel Crafts builds this set by hand, combining the pronged design with a matched utility companion blade.

Blade Performance

High-carbon steel holds an edge well through repeated outdoor and chopping use. Three blood grooves reduce blade weight while keeping the steel rigid under pressure. The pronged tip adds hooking utility beyond what a single-point blade offers. Full tang construction keeps both knives balanced and steady through hard use. The D-guard protects the grip during aggressive chopping motions. Both blades benefit from a light oil after each use to prevent rust.

Handle Construction

Brown wood covers both handles in a warm, natural tone. Two silver pins run through each handle, locking the scales to the full tang blade beneath. A D-guard crossguard adds grip protection on the large machete. A silver bolster caps the blade end of the MUK knife. Both handles stay consistent in color and material across the set. This build holds up well under the daily demands of outdoor and camp work.

Best Used For

This set suits campers, outdoorsmen, and bushcraft enthusiasts who need a heavy chopping blade and a compact utility knife together. The pronged tip handles tasks a standard single-point blade can't.
