This is 65 year old Krishna Lal. He has 55 years shop experience and good ideas. He wanders in from time to time from his home to offer a little advice to the youngsters, sometimes makes a khukuri or helps make one, and earns a little cash.

We had a hard time communicating. Krisha is deaf and my Nepali poor and this made for the problem.

In the top picture he's holding a 30 inch Sirupati made by Kumar. "Put this cho on this knife so people will know I had a hand in it's making," he asked of Kumar. The knife has a very unusual cho.

In the bottom picture he is tormenting Bura, saying that he can make a better Banspati than Bura. Truth is, he can't.

Uncle Bill, your pictures are great! The next best thing to being there. Thanks for sharing, and I look forward to seeing many more.
 
Mike I'm using Netscape Navigator and the pix are coming thru loud and clear. Same with AOL. Try another browser and see what happens.

Anybody else have problems getting the pix?
