Hi Flavio , I agree ...spearhead..but I assumed it had a tang and I hadn't seen this shape with a tang. But I now realise it could be socketted ...so Masai or Sudanese , as suggest by Mike,(Hi Mike )
I didn't win it (didn't bid) so I am uncertain about whether the pommel opens or not, but I think it probably does.....but to contain what? perhaps a 'protective' talisman, symbolic herb?..... The hilt wrapping is also very suspect, poorly done I feel
