A man was sharpening a knife in a fish shop

Fishmonger sharpening a knife — Shot at Chinatown in Bangkok, Thailand

The street in Chinatown was crowded. Yet there were no Chinese restaurants here. Most of the shops on this street were selling foodstuffs. So its atmosphere looked like a market. The fishmonger in this photo was also doing business in the street.

Many pieces of fishes were displayed on the table. They were big fishes. Yet I didn't understand what kind of fishes they were.

A man wearing a striped apron stood on the other side of the table. Seemingly, he had finished cutting all the fishes he purchased on that day. He didn't cut any fishes anymore. A grinding stone was placed on the table and he was just sharpening it. He often stopped his hands and checked on the knife. He seemed to do it in a careful manner.
