Two African knives

[Sajen]

Hi Ian,

A beautiful Sudanese arm dagger of very good quality.
The second long dagger is indeed a Shona dagger of good age, old or antique and has nothing to do with a Shi sword.

Here: http://www.vikingsword.com/vb/showth...ghlight=dagger you can see an arm dagger which I sold years ago, also with inscription on the blade.

Regards,
Detlef

Hi Detlef

Its a leather tribal repair to the handle. Maybe the handle was broken, very solid.

Best regards
Marc
