Welcome aboard, Maria. Very nice pieces, and nicely photographed. I could so collect African blades. But alas, eight collections is enough. Or, is it nine or... Yes, I have severe, cronic, collector's A.D.D..

As those before me have said, welcome Maria!

Very nice to see a lady collector within these pages and a mighty fine start with those 4 very fine African knives, I too look forward to seeing more.

Hello Maria and welcome to the forum !!! It's always great when someone new joins our little group and it is especially nice when they post new pictures of such great looking sharp pointy items such as yours. Thou I only collect Philippine weapons I am truly looking forward to your next posting of more items from your collection of African weapons.

Best Regards
Robert

WELCOME TO THE FORUM AND CONGRADULATIONS ON SOME VERY GOOD QUALITY ITEMS.
MY COLLECTION IS A MIX OF GOOD QUALITY TO LOW QUALITY ITEMS. PERHAPS I DON'T FOLLOW THE WISEST RULES OF COLLECTING BUT I ENJOY THEM ALL ESPECAILY THE RARE SUPER DEAL ON A TOP QUALITY ITEM. BUT I OFTEN HAVE TO SETTLE FOR LOWER QUALITY TO KEEP THE ADDICTION FED.

AFRICA IS A VERY LARGE FIELD TO COLLECT IN BUT THE FORUM OFTEN TEMPTS US TO EXPAND INTO OTHER REALMS SO BEWARE
