Kitchen Knife

A chulesi is a special Nepalese knife designed to be used while the user is sitting on the ground. A heavy wide-blade that is slightly curved is molded and attached to a wooden block. To use the chulesi one needs to sit on the ground and hold the wooden block with one foot and then the vegetable or meat is cut by using both hands feeding it through the blade, pushing it against it. One certainly needs special skill to use it.
