Last week Pala received this magnificent gift from Bookie.
Pala and I want to thank Bookie for gift and your friendship to HI, forum and Kamis.

Wonderful thing in all respects. Fine looking blade and it sure looks good on Pala.
 
Mrs. Martino, thank you for the photographs. Seeing your Father holding something I did makes me very feel proud. I am so fortunate having friends in you and your Father. Love to you both.

Gentlemen, thank you for your kind words, but what I did is but a mere shadow of the patent kindness and unbarred generosity shown to me. Just one old soldier thanking another old soldier. Those photographs of Pala will be treasured by me for years to come, so I don't know who came out ahead in this transaction! But look closely. You can see the spirit of a once proud Gurkha looking back at you!
 
You know what they say, "with friends like these . . ."

Pala is a lucky man!

Beautiful work.
