A Bike Ride Around Ruluos... Part II



The pathways around Ruluos are indeed lovely...


The tranquil Cambodian countryside has its seductive charms...


Stopping by at this nonagenarian's workshop...


...this is where he crafts knives, a dying art in these parts...


Heating up the iron...


A traditional knife in its casing...


Our guide shows us the old man's samples...


Hunting tool or a weapon... these knives had been used in wars around the region, including till a few decades back, to supplement modern weaponry...



The old man's stilt house...


The old man is super fit...



We're on our way...







Lovely balmy weather...







And our last stop before heading to Tonle Sap...
