They thought the odds were forty to one.
They were forty to two. Him and his Khukuri.

It is never drawn that is does not taste blood.
I was walking down the mountain in Eastern Nepal by myself in 1983, when a few tough looking guys asked, “Where are your friends?” in Nepali.
I answered back, “Mero Kukri mero sati ho!” (my kukri is my friend) and patted my large kukri knife strapped to the side of my pack. That I knew the language, and carried a large weapon made them literally take a step back and let me pass.
I have one of those knives, given to me by my Dad. It’s very old, but still solid and serviceable. I believe he got it in China or Hong Kong when he was in the Navy right after WWII.
