Up until then, genuine village dances were conducted with real things. Georgians were poor enough to afford a trinket used only occasionally and for entertainment purposes.

And, BTW, the one shown here is a VERY modern creation. It will become an antique not earlier than 100 years from now:-)))))
its newer than that its post soviet era. any are not for dancing but actually souvenir knives that have a think blade unsharpened and held with seal wax to pass stupid soviet and russian cold weapon laws of the post ww2 period.
