Thank you for my ordainment Kubur!!!

and for the support in my 'sermon'.
As has often been noted, British blades surely did find circulation in many unusual places, and Africa was of course included.
I have a takouba with a MOLE blade. Unusual to see a 'Harvey' blade in a nimcha.
The koummya story sounds exciting! Possibly there is a parable in it as well.
Peace.
