WELCOME TO THE FORUM. A EXCELLENT FANG KNIFE. I HAVE TWO EXAMPLES BUT THEY ARE NOT ON THE LEVEL WITH YOUR EXAMPLE.
MINE DO NOT HAVE THE FISH TAIL, IS THAT A REGIONAL VARIATION OR DOES IT REPRESENT AN OLDER FORM?
THE SECOND KNIFE YOU SHOW IS UNUSUAL WITH THE PHALLIC NATURE OF ITS DESIGN IS IT ASSOCIATED WITH SOME FERTILITY CEREMONIE? IF NOT WHAT PURPOSE DOES IT SERVE IN THE TRIBAL GROUP. I LOOK FORWARD TO SEEING MORE OF YOUR COLLECTION. BOTH ITEMS ARE LIKELY THE BEST OF THEIR TYPES I HAVE SEEN. CONGRADULATIONS!
UNFORTUNATELY I HAVE NOT HAD THE RESISTANCE TO JUST COLLECT TOP QUALITY ITEMS OR TO COLLECT IN ONE AREA OF THE WORLD OR ONE FORM OF WEAPON. WHATEVER INTERESTS ME THAT I CAN AFFORD I GET AND STUDY.
