A Very Nice Coorg Pichangetti With All the "Bells and Whistles"

AWESOME pics Ian!!! This is not at all the way I expected it to be worn. Great info! It reminds me a bit of the modern wear of Indonesian keris and Arab jambiyas.

If you look at the examples in the bottom two photos, you can see some of the exact same motifs as the one I have posted here.

I wonder if these knives become family heirlooms?

The Coorg have clearly updated their beer and drinks menu...
...and I would sure love to be at that buffet!
