Description
A traditional Sarbloh Iron Kara, handmade in Amritsar, Punjab, and suitable for Sikhs looking for a simple, lightweight and smooth everyday Kara.
The Kara is one of the Five Kakaars / 5Ks of the Sikh faith and is traditionally worn by Sikhs as a reminder of faith, discipline, righteous conduct and connection with the Guru.
This H10 design has a clean and understated appearance with an approximate 5.3mm width and 3.7mm thickness, making it considerably slimmer than many heavier Sarbloh Karas.
Each Kara is individually handmade using traditional manufacturing methods. As a result, every piece is unique and may show small variations in shape, finish, colour, dimensions and weight.
These Karas are made in Amritsar Sahib, Punjab, the sacred city of Sri Harmandir Sahib / Darbar Sahib.
Sarbloh – Important Material Information
Sarbloh means iron, and it behaves very differently from stainless steel.
Natural characteristics can include:
- Surface oxidation or rust marks
- Dark or black areas
- Small grinding or polishing marks
- Joint/manufacturing marks
- Minor scratches and scuffs
- Slight unevenness in shape
- Differences in colour and finish
- Small variations between individual pieces
These are normal characteristics of traditionally manufactured Sarbloh products and should not automatically be considered manufacturing defects.
Before dispatch, we normally give the Kara a basic hand polish to improve its appearance. However, because this is genuine iron, oxidation can naturally return when exposed to moisture, perspiration or humidity.
Regular drying and occasional polishing can help maintain its appearance.
Handmade Product
Every H10 Kara is individually made and finished by hand.
Because of the traditional manufacturing process:
Size tolerance: approximately ±2mm
Small differences between our measurement and your own ruler or digital vernier calliper are therefore possible.
Minor black grinding marks may occasionally be visible around the area where the Kara has been shaped or finished. These do not affect normal use.
Choosing Your Kara Size
The listed size refers to the approximate inside diameter of the Kara, measured straight across the centre from inner edge to inner edge.
Please do not measure the outside diameter.
For the best result:
- Measure the inside diameter of a Kara that already fits you comfortably.
- Measure straight across its widest central point.
- Compare that measurement with our available variations.
- Allow approximately ±2mm handmade tolerance.
If you are unsure about sizing, please contact us before ordering.
Sikh Significance
The Kara, written ਕੜਾ in Gurmukhi, is one of the traditional Five Kakaars (5Ks) associated with initiated Sikhs.
Its continuous circular form is commonly understood as a reminder of commitment to the Guru, spiritual discipline, responsibility and righteous actions.
A simple iron or steel Kara remains one of the most recognisable articles of Sikh identity worldwide.

It is made from traditional Sarbloh, meaning iron. It is not stainless steel.
Is this an authentic Sikh Kara?
It is a traditionally styled Sikh Sarbloh Kara handmade in Amritsar, Punjab.
Is the Kara suitable for everyday wear?
Yes. Many people wear Sarbloh Kara daily, but iron requires more care than stainless steel because it can naturally oxidise.
Will Sarbloh rust?
Yes. Genuine iron can develop surface oxidation when exposed to water, moisture, sweat or humidity. This is a natural property of iron.

Not necessarily. Each Kara is handmade, so minor variations in shape, polish, colour and manufacturing marks are expected.
What does the listed size mean?
The size is the approximate inner diameter, not the outer diameter.
