Help identifying possible North African dagger
Hello
New to the forums, so hopefully I got everything right here. I recently acquired a dagger in Marrakech, Morocco from what seemed to be a "non-shady" place . The seller told me that the dagger was an original as opposed to a reproduction - I have no way of knowing whether that was a true statement or not. I purchased it more because I thought it was an interesting piece rather than any attempt to become a collector. I've searched through the internet and cannot find a dagger that looks anything like it at all (other than the slight curvature), and am very curious as to whether anyone can identify what type of dagger this is, where it came from ethnographically, and if anyone could hazard a guess as to its age. I can add more pictures if anyone needs more detail. Thanks in advance for any insights! |
