BBC News - The only living master of a dying martial art

Media_httpnewsbbcimgc_avdjx

This is really interesting. In this day an age a man feels that as part of his heritage he is trying to save an ancient art that is in risk of being lost.
We think it is great that he his a former factory worker, but has found a way to travel, learn more about his craft, and he has also attracted students and is endeavouring to keep the tradition alive.
Sikhs are part of the great warrior caste of the subcontinent, and it is amazing also that there are so many weapons that are not only part of the costume and also look very dealy in themselves.
