Hi David

Most likely the knobkerrie is from Southern Africa, the East African ones (rungus) tend to have a more pointed egg-shape, with a small collar or step below the head.

In which case, your example could be quite early (19th century) as the Europeans managed to wipe out most of the wildlife fairly quickly...
