Hello, great site! I recently picked this copper dagger up and was told by the seller that it was American Westcoast Tlinget copper dagger. One of my friends indicated they thought it was more likely an African dagger. It measures approx. 16" long and has a wooden carved figure with tack nails through the nose which fastens to the copper handle. Also has mother of pearl inlay eyes. Hope the photos come up. Would really appreciate any info. Thanks!
