Ilwoon scabbard
Hi all, I wonder if the Congo Boys (
  ) can show a detailed picture of a ilwoon Kuba scabbard that were made by raffia. At the moment I remember only the pics from Spring's (attached). I ask because I was able to find some pieces of very old raffia clothes (100 years old) and so I'd like to made one for my Ilwoon. Thank you all for the help

Make one for me while you are at it. Did we not see some of your mothers needle work making little booties for your treasures? What is the raffia that you have like?

IN YOUR PICTURE TO THE RIGHT IS THAT HIS SWORD IN SOME SORT OF A SACK HANGING ON HIS LEFT SHOULDER? IF IT IS IT WOULD BE DESIGNED TO BE EASILY REMOVED AND THE TOP OF THE POMMEL EXPOSED FOR GRASPING AND DRAWING THE SWORD PERHAPS THROWING THE SACK TO THE GROUND. GOOD LUCK
