The '''Kukri''' is the [[melee]] weapon for the [[Sniper]] class. A Kukri is a Heavy Nepalese Knife used as both a tool and as a weapon. The most distinctive feature of this weapon is that the blade has a deflected angle of 20° or more, with a thick spine and a single sharp cutting edge; this causes the end section of the blade to strike square on, greatly increasing chopping effectiveness. It is most famously known as a part of the regimental weaponry and heraldry of [[wikipedia:Gurkha|Gurkha]] fighters. Forming part of the survival equipment carried by airmen during the early 1940s conflict in Burma, the Kukri is an essential item equally effective at hacking through jungles as well as self defense.
