African knife and spears of unknown origin.

This knife does loosely resemble that Turkish bayonet.

The total lengths of both spears are a little over 2.5 feet. The smaller spear tip is 8.5 inches long. The larger one is about 1 foot long.

The knife has a 7.25 inch blade and is 11.5 long. I don't know what the white woven material on the scabbard is. It feels like leather, but I don't know.

I think my great-grandfather would have been in Liberia in the 1920's. I am 20 years old. He also brought back lots of beautiful carvings in wood and in ivory, but I have not yet inherited those from my grandmother.
