Handicrafts are one of the major exportable items of Nepal especially to overseas market. Most of the metal crafts industries in Nepal are operating on their household basis. The artisans have gifted skills but due to financing problem they are unable to expand their production. Most of the craft activities are hereditary in nature, so, they are producing in traditional style. The Nepalese craftsmen are operating in small scale and mostly illiterates, less are illiterates and those with educated minds are concentrated towards official works or services. They are still lacking modern technology and in the absence of proper training facilities regarding improved technology, use of new tools equipments for improved efficient metal crafts of Nepal is facing a big problem of qualitative products and price competition and design modification. Traditional backwardness in modern craft manufacture has caused Nepal to face a very hard time to continue its survival and growth in competitive world market.
