Nam Pee was set aside strictly and only for the production of weapons for the
personal collection of the King of Thailand. No one else had the right to own
this substance. This metal was discovered in the course of the 19th Century in
the village of Nampee, in the Utharadit region. Many stories are told
recounting how its discoverers gradually became aware of very strange powers
after forging the simplest cooking utensils from this "blue steel."
Here is one such tale that was told to me:
Working
his field, one day a peasant ran into reddish stones, very heavy, so heavy that
his plow was brought to a dead halt! Digging one out, taking a good look at it,
he discovered that it was a mineral specimen composed of a very pure iron! The
good man was delighted with his find, for at this time iron was still rare and
costly!
He
then commissioned the village blacksmith to create a great meat chopper for his
kitchen. Despite several odd obstacles during the forging, the blacksmith was
finally able to produce and sell to his client a large cleaver, yet, the metal
turned out blue!
The
peasant accepted this curious cooking tool, and even made it his favorite,
since it was sharp, it never lost its sharp cutting edge, and it never rusted!
A
little while later, one of this good man's buffalos suddenly refused to work,
and would not budge one inch, despite blows and stern commands. Finally he
lightly tapped the buffalo with his new cleaver and was stupefied! With that
one light blow, he cut the animal cleanly in half!
Understanding
finally that this was no ordinary cutter, but an object of properties unprecedented,
he decided that he and his brother would present it as an offering to the King.
But the king refused the peasant's gift, not appreciating that this homely
cooking knife was really a weapon of fearsome power; he even though the peasant
slightly deranged, to offer him such a lowly gift! He then had the two brothers
thrown of out of court without a thought of what troubles they had taken. While
the guards were forcibly ejecting the peasant from the court, he struck a great
rock with his strange cutter. The king saw that the rock had been cut in two,
and there was even a deep wound in the earth where it stood. The king changed
his mind.
The
king thereupon dispatched his guards to go after the peasant, to apologize and
bring him back, him and his strange knife. When the guards finally caught up
with the good man, he didn't want to hear about it, not a thing - he was not at
all amused at having been tossed out of court
After
a laborious journey carrying a gift of great value. After a stormy
confrontation, he took out his strange knife and killed all the guards who had
come to take him back! Then he slumped under a tree and fell asleep!
Seeing
that his guards weren't coming home, the king to go out and find him himself,
which he did, for the good man had dragged his knife along the ground while
leaving the killing scene, creating a huge trench easily followed! This trench
still exists, and is pointed out by worthy people even now in our day!
Lek
Nam Pee blades are known to be capable of cutting through an ordinary blade,
they never rust, and they are even able to wound people having the Sak-yant
invincibility tattoo. Indeed a wound received from one of these blades is known
never to heal and lead to the victim's death, whatever the care he receives -
such is what this metal can do!
Lek
Nam Pee is used in the creation of amulets and painted spheres, made from
mixing Lek Nam Pee powder and clay. These spheres and amulets are definitely
magnetic (they contain a great deal of iron, which entails their magnetism).
Give
their wearer partial invulnerability and strongly enhance his personal
resonance (Convincing power), loving kindness ( Metta) and Charm.
