Regards.
As Colin has posted, with the addition of a number of Masai groups. Many modern spears are made by a group of blacksmiths that supply both the Samburu and the Masai, therefore the only attribution for the supplied spear is whether it was used by a Masai or Samburu

Salaams Ibrahiim,
yes, unfortunately your spears are made for tourists ....still fun to throw though

All the best
David
