I have never seen anyone wear a koummya anywhere in Morocco. Moroccans have had tourist for a long time except for kif,sardines,and phosphores there is not much else to export.

Thanks for the clarification Ward. I wasn't sure how widespread the continued wearing of these weapons remained as with the janbiyya in Arabia and so on. It's always good to hear more current observations from those who have travelled the regions in discussion.
All the best,
Jim
