This morning, I was asked about creating a two masterpiece blades. Curious, I asked, “For what occasion?”

With a smile, he replied, “For the future.”

I smiled back, assuming he was preparing for his wedding. But his response caught me off guard.

“No, Ostad. One day, you will no longer be here, and the craftsmanship and the knowledge you carry will disappear with you.”

“Trade however, is in a low state, owing to the insecurity of merchants going backwards and forwards through the territories of so many independant chiefs. Of their manufactures, the principal are very fine cloth, which they make at Lahore, as also the best arms in Hindostan.

Their cavalry is remarkably good, the men being very hardy and well armed with sabres and excellent matchlocks, which they use with great dexterity; the horses bred in their country, are of one of the best breeds in the empire, owing to the use formerly made there of Arabian and Persian stallions, and something in the temperature of the air and water of that country.”

— James Browne, History of the Origin and Progress of the Sicks

“the court tradesmen, jewellers, workers in gold and silver, armourers, & c., who flourished at Lahore in the time of the Sikh ‘Darbar’ under the patronage of the Court and the Chiefs and Sardars … find little support under the less ostentatious rule of the British Government.”
This is quoted by Nadhra Shahbaz Khan from the Lahore District Census Report of 1865 (published 1868).

Paperwork, appraisals, fixing, repairing, forging, finishing, selling, shipping—the list never seems to end. Life gets busy, and before you know it, time has passed you by.

Every now and then, it’s important to stop, take a moment, and appreciate the journey.
