    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:TushetiWeding.jpg

    there you see the two young men wear it during wedding with a dagger hung on their waist.. you can buy georgian daggers online..actually good ones like 100 year old ones and older and not too expensive..every georgian hangs one at home on the wall with the flag

    here is a link to georgian folk dance pics.. the cool thing about the dances is that each type of dance has a meaning..like khorumi, its music is actually in BC if you pic georgia during battle sometimes you hear it.....the war dance..

    http://members.tripod.com/~ninog/dances.htm
    or a dance of cavalry..so if you watch some dances on you tube and you know the meaning of them its cool to watch..

    heres A link to georgian SWORD FIGHTING DANCE... AWSOME VID.

    fast forward the vid to 3:20 that is when they take out the swords and start to fight. enjoy...tell me if you liked it

    http://youtube.com/watch?v=dbHgIhpZJOI

    dont forget to fast forward to 3:20
