My little blade collection

Hi all,
Here is my little collection of edged weapons. To the best of my limited knowledge in this field, here goes. Left to right is a congolese sword? , Fang sword? , Dayak mandau , Mangbetu trumbash , and a Zande sickle
Not sure how good the two on the left are,but think the rest are great.
The mandau is one of my all time Favorite pieces, would date to late 19th c. or there abouts, love the hair and tassels. The trumbash I was thinking 1915-1920, and not sure on the Zande sickle.Also not sure what this sickle is called?
Well hope you like.
comments welcome

Regard Ash
