Who's got the khukuri? Revisited.

Bill Martino · Nov 2, 1999

There are a lot of new forumites who have not seen this picture. The original is a painting hanging in Nepal's National Museum.

The question was and is "Who's got the khukuri?"

Doesn't Mr. Stripes have four of them hidden behind his smile?
Always a pleasure Bill,

I think the elephant handler or mahout (sp?) has the khukuri..

Sut, I'll bet he wishes he did. Poor fellow really didn't stand a chance.

Bhanis, you are correct.

Thank you Kaka,

I bet that tiger wished he had some 20" Sirupati's behind that smile. That might have been a little more intimidating

Bhanis, everything out of the pix -- the tiger still has no chance. Not even with 4 20 inch Sirupatis. The haati will get him.

Pakcik Bill.

I guess the elephant must have a pair of colosal Janawar Katne ... I saw one of them!

NEPAL HO!

Bill Martino · Nov 3, 1999

Right you are, Mohd!
