Thanks Spiral.
Unfortunately there seems to be little information on the web, regarding Rhino Horn Knobkerries. I would be grateful for any further info.
Here is a similar example that has sold on Artzi's site.....
"......A rare example of a Zulu Knobkerri war club carved entirely of Rhino Horn. It is 16 ½ inches long made from a beautiful piece of Rhino Horn with a 2 X 2 inches rounded nicely symmetrical head....."
