Dear Yangdu didi,

In last shipment we have sent one new model knife called Bhimsen model (17" overall length with 5.5" Handle in horn) made by Sher kami according to him I am going to pass you brief history regarding this knife.

Brife History for Bhimsen model knife:-

This is the replica version of knife used by Bhimsen Thapa during war against the British (English East India Company) in 1816 as the commander of the army and as the Prime Minister.

Bhimsen Thapa was born in the small district of Gorkha. He remained the Prime minister of Nepal from 1775 to 1839. He is regarded as one of the hero’s of Nepal, also the first prime Minister who fought with British India regime back in 1814. Thapa's one of the contribution to the country, the military and social reforms, are remembered even Today.



Thank you,

Rajesh
