Just wondering how many Ganga Ram Specials that were actually made by Ganga Ram are out there......Also, is he still making them? Thanks. :)

(I tried a SEARCH on "Ganga Ram" and got literally hundreds of responses, so my apologies if this has been asked and answered already.)
 
I have one of the first two that were made by old Ganga Ram - blade marked "GRB" and "MADE IN NEPAL". Haven't heard any word about him in quite some time - maybe Uncle Bill knows. I doubt if he'll be making any more - and they aren't making any more like Ganga Ram, either.
 
Best I can recall he made six before he ran out of gas. At 80+ years the pace at BirGorkha was too much for him. He was a true master kami and nobody, not even Bura, made the Ganga Ram Specials quite like he did. I never got to meet him and that I regret.
