Bhutan it is then. I looked at Oriental Arms Sold items, and saw others attributed to Bhutan.

Anybody recall a discussion on the use of the color red on weapons some years ago? I think we determined that there were enough instances in varying cultures that might suggest symbolic purpose. It seems that in Africa, the Maasai scabbards on the seme' are often colored red, and if I am not mistaken I have seen traces of red on some kaskara.
I did not mean to derail the discussion here on Kino's very nice Bhutanese 'snag'!!! (nicely done Kino!! but Mark's post of the beautiful examples with prominant red decor and note compelled me All best regards, Jim |
