DHAS / DAABS FOR DISCUSSION
I have seen a few of these red/black Dhas over the years. I have two and a friend has two which are almost identical.
It has been suggested that they are military but I have been offered no evidence of this.
They all seem to have rather crude blades, thick brass fittings and the scabbards are either lacquered or painted with a thick red and black substance.
sizes are similar, all being approximately 27 inches overall length, with a +/- 10 inch hilt.
Any suggestions as to origin will be welcome.
Regards
Roy
