Full description
Kambam is a bottom-dwelling fish with whisker-like barbels round the mouth and a dangerous spike on its back fin, appreciated for its greasy meat with few, easily removable bones. When the design of this string figure emerges, the maker says they will get rid of the side bones, and slide the design on their thigh, representing how easy it is to get rid of the bones of this fish.
