Well assuming that the same seller had about a 20-30 similar daggers for sale and that he deals predominantly new made swords.... :rolleyes:

Well I saw some similar pieces at a bazar in Djerba-Tunis the last year... :)

Hi everybody,

It is a letter-opener made in the tuareg-style, typical of West Africa. I have an almost identical one. It is a very nice utilitarian object, but certainly not a weapon, and for sure not ethnographic ;)

Sincerely,

Zan
