Mitmor (Magical Knife) is a type of Kreung Lang that has been in the beliefs of Thai people for a long time. But with many widely known people is inevitable. A Mitmor that resembles a deity with the power of your grace. Phra Khru Niwat Thammakhan (Luang Phor Derm Buddhasaro) is the god of the four Kwai cities. As well as to the disciples of the Lord who had studied all the sciences of that magic which is famous as a seeker of popular talismans.

There are many schools of Mitmor built in the North, Central, South, and Northeastern regions. There are many textbooks passed down from old teachers. Both monks and lay teachers (Ajarn / Archan / Ajahn / Kerawat /Bomoh) have taught students from that school. If created for distribution only to a group of people who study polytechnics in that school, it is often referred to as "Kru's knife", which is a magical knife that the teacher gives to different students. In order to protect himself from the dark magic or dangers that swarmed in.

As for the Mitmor (in my view) should be divided into two words, knives + healers. “Mit / Knife” is an object made of mostly steel. Or made of other metals such as brass, copper, bronze, flat and sharp on one side. Or those with physical and mental disorders If it's a superstitious treatment, it's popular to call a shaman, a kerawat, a bomoh, a healer, a archan, etc. If it's a scientific treatment, it's popular to call a doctor, a female doctor, who classifies the treatment according to the symptoms of that disease. For example, psychiatrists treat mental disabilities, madness, psychosis, dentist treats teeth, veterinarians treat sick animals, etc.

Knife+Doctor (Mitmor) when these two words are combined. It probably means It is a weapon or tool used to save lives. Cure physical and mental disorders caused by demonic invasions. Or various superstitious methods, such as Khun Sai, charming charms, embedding images according to those ancient beliefs. Or it is a weapon used to save one's life from the dark magic and various perils to survive, so it's called a “Mitmor” (this is my own attitude).

Often it is a knife made from various mystical metals, such as the top of the castle, the top of the chedi, the top of the pagoda, the steel of the monks. Steel gallows to burn ghosts, steel pierced corpses, steel fistulas polished doors. Various mystical iron according to the textbook. These were then mixed together and created (I don't know how you melted this one), as in the story of Khun Chang Khun Phaen mentioned when Khun Phaen revived the sword of the sky.

"Will arrange to strike the sword to defeat the battle

He placed it in the Mahasarakom
Take the iron at the top of Phra Chedi Mahathat
The top of Dwaramaprasat Castle

for three days the iron smashed into smaller pieces.
Still, but as beautiful as the textbook
Finished slashing the iron seven times.
until the auspicious day of Saturday fifteen
then cut down trees and planted a shrine
and supply all kinds of card machines"

It is believed that these iron mystics can suppress many very bad things. If cut the hand and cut the meat believed to be incurable too, must be cursed by iron and magic. Or will it be because of a giant fight, it's unpredictable. If people do not have faith, they will be ignorant.

Let me tell you this today. Let's read and have fun in the covid era. That's enough. Please use your discretion too...
