Indian gravity knife

This article is about the Indian weapon. For the California-bornSadhu, seeBaba Rampuri.

TheRampuri (रामपूरी चाकू) is an Indianpocket knife with a single-edged blade typically 9 to 12 inches (23 to 30 cm) long, with shorter variants also made. This includes bothswitchblade knives and also step-lock types.^[1]^[2] The name Rampuri comes from the town ofRampur, Uttar Pradesh. The royalbladesmiths of the localNawabs of Rampur started making knives after the popularization offirearms after the 18th century.^{[citation needed]}

The Rampuri is still in use today as a criminal weapon^[3] by the localIndian mafia, although locally made guns and sophisticated automatic pistols have largely taken their place. However, in the mid-1990s, theGovernment of Uttar Pradesh banned making such knives longer than 4.5 inches (11 cm) in blade length, which led to a drop in popularity of the knife.^[4]

The knife was often featured inBollywood crime thrillers in the 1960s and 1970s.^[4]
