Unknown African sword

[Iain]

The sword you linked is mine actually (and the website) .

For age, it is hard to judge precisely I think, but from the relatively good condition of the leather and very clean blade I would guess mid 20th century or later. On the other side it could just be very well cleaned and preserved and early 20th century.

Yes I have cleaned it with a nylon brush, it's a nicely forged blade, a small design on it, my guess would be first half of 20th century.
