Default Assorted takoubas for sale

Hi All,

Need to sell a few items to fund a recent acquisition.

A few notes, I'm not listing exact shipping as it depends on where it needs to go. I only charge exactly what it costs me at the post office. Roughly speaking usually it's around 20 Euros or a bit less to ship a sword inside Europe depending on the type of service you want - easiest way is to contact me and we'll figure out what works for you. I prefer to ship to Europe as I'm located in Czech Republic and that keeps the shipping costs down. But I will ship anywhere if asked!

I am not interested in trades at the moment I afraid.

I can be contacted at iain.norman(at)gmail.com. Payment options I am open to are paypal (I don't add a percentage to cover fees), or bank transfer.

Images attached to this post correspond to order the items are listed in (first image is of first item etc.)

1. Takouba – Tuareg

A nice classic example of the Tuareg takouba with an excellent pommel stack. In good shape overall. I think pics tell pretty much everything you need to know. A nice complete sword with sheath in great condition with woven carry strap still attached.

Asking 160 Euros.

2. Takouba (Alguinjar) – Fulani?


More details and pictures here: http://takouba.org/crv-takouba02/

The curved variants aren't seen for sale very often. As you can see there's some corrosion (I've worked on it a bit recently, so it's somewhat better than in these pics, but not drastically). Sheath is in good shape.

Asking 120 Euros.

3. Takouba – Tuareg

More details and pictures here: http://takouba.org/takouba06/

A fairly typical more modern takouba but a nice sturdy sword none the less and at a nice price! Sheath is in good condition.

Asking 100 Euros.
