Prayers for Bura

(नमस्ते Bura, positive thoughts and best wishes from NZ.
 
I have five HI blades... Two of Kumar's, three of Bura's.

All fine pieces, but the Bura 15" AK is the one I have hanging as an example of what a Khukuri is to me.

Healing thoughts, prayers, smoke.
 
This is my first post on this forum. I have been a lurker here for some time now. My first HI khukuri was the 16.5" Chiruwa AK by Bura. It is an incredible strong and beautiful knife. When I hold it in my hand I feel stronger somehow. I'm not familiar with the traditions or the religion of the kamis and the people of Nepal but I feel the need to express my great respect for this man and his work. I pray for him to get well.

I have many Bura khukuris. One in particular, I found in UB/Yangdu Inventory shed. It had been used extensively as a garden tool from the looks of it. I asked UB if I could buy it as I hated to see Buras work laying there like a lost orphan. He agreed to sell it to me. I fixed it up as best I could and still use it to this day. Surapati . I think of him and UB every time I use it. Yes, I use it for the same purpose as Yangdu or UB did. I'm a sentimental old fool.:) Prayers gone out for a fine craftsman.

Smoke and prayers from Iowa. Bura's a tough guy, and we're all rooting for him.

Prayers,

Chris
