Last week, I was able to buy an entire collection of African weapons. Among these pieces was this dagger.
In my (humble) opinion, it is from the Luba-tribe. I found a dagger with a similar blade in one of my books.
I hope you can see on the pics, this knife has a well forged blade. The wooden handle has been embellished with some copper strips. At the top of the handle, an iron ring has been added.
Total length : 36 cm. Length of blade : 25,5 cm
As I'm not at all sure of the origin, I would appreciate any 'input' from the other forum members.
