African bandia and mongelima sword

[JBG163]

Thanks Luc ! Nice photos, a diamond tip would be my next target i think. That kind of weapons was carried by everybody in the tribe ? Or specific rank/soldier ?
Sajen, do not worry, that's the auction photos. They are already oiled, and i will soon clean them with deer antle and oil in order to remove rust

Hello Julien,

Good like this!

To answer your question to Luc, so far I know this are weapons and not status symbols so they were used by all warriors.
