EN: blacksmith
This is the specialist version of 'panday'. If 'panday' is a 'doctor,' 'panday-bakal' is a 'surgeon.' This person specifically works with iron and steel, making everything from farming tools to weapons. They're the ones you go to when you need a custom-made 'gulok' for your backyard jungle or iron grilles for your windows to keep the 'chismosa' neighbors out.
A compound word from `panday` (smith) + `bakal` (iron).
More specific than the general term 'panday'.
