Blades found in Marrakech, Morocco
Am now in Marrakech , and I snapped pics of blades I can find. But let me first of all qualify that I don't know how old or how authentic these pieces are. I don't know anything about them as in I don't even know their names!
Well, at least I know one name now, after reading Lee's article. Without further ado, the pics will be posted in two batches. This first batch pertains to those displayed in the bar of a luxury resort, Amanjena. Being a top-quality resort, I'm presuming that they were able to get good samples.
