I received a parcel of khukuris today that left Nepal five days after the katanas. Not a good sign.

The box of katanas contained some other silver laden goodies and there are three possiblities: 1)Customs has the parcel with the katanas 2)the parcel has been delayed for some reason 3)the parcel is lost.

It is a case of hoping for the best of the worst possibilites.

Sorry, Antonio!

:
Let's pray that the katanas aren't lost.
Or if customs has them it won't be long until they're released and if delayed it won't be long until they show up.
Wasn't one order that didn't show up for some time have one of those heavily laden silver models in it?
Perhaps those models should be shipped one or two at the most in bundles with less noticeable items in them. From all you've said in the past Bro, there's no telling about customs.

I've tried to get them to stagger the silver laden knives but they won't do it. They love to ship everything at once. Three kothimodas and three kothimoda katanas all in the same box with a bunch of other stuff we really don't want to lose but could afford to much easier than losing a half dozen kothimodas. They just don't seem to understand my concept of hedging against loss.

Maa-syaa-Allaah!

I know how you feel Pakcik Bill ... like waiting for our small kid that coming back late from school ... we keep on going to the door every now and then!

Breath deeply Pakcik Bill ... send your mental vibration to whoever caused the delay ... telephatically ask them to release them a.s.a.p!

NEPAL HO!
 
Dire news indeed!

Uncle, should these katanas arrive, would one of the kothimoda katanas be mine?
