If it was the Ramps who cursed the gift.  Personally, I don't' believe that Bianca knew the Athame was tainted.

This^^.

Bianca looks to me like a tool of a tool.  Ortega was there, remember.  If he had wanted to prevent war with the White Council, he could easily have made it happen.  So Bianca was being used as a tool by the Red Court to start a war with the Council on a pretext.

But the Red Court, in turn, as a body, was being used as a tool by Somebody/Something in a bigger, longer game.  That's the people I would expect to be behind the tainted athame and the rest.  It's a good question whether any of the Court knew anything about the curse.

Rasins:
Given that Arianna was probably a member of the black council/Circle, and that Duke Ortega was technically her vassal, I could totally see her ordering him to go, offer this to Winter, and he was clueless.

Concur.  She was clearly not privvy to the Red Court/Black Council schemes in Storm Front, given how she reacted to one of her's being targeted.  Given that I doubt they'd (the LotON) have trusted her with the Big Picture even if they (the Red Court) were actually aware of Nemesis or Cowl's schemes (Im assuming here that Cowl at least was 100% aware of it all).

The fomor was apparently supplying weapons and other material to the rcv for their war effort so they likely had great influence for their strategies.
