West African ? dagger for I.D.

[Iain]

Hi Colin,

My little Chamba piece has a similar blade style you are right. I'd say native, if only for the fact that the region is fairly isolated and I haven't seen that blade profile as common in the surrounding Islamic emirates. If it came via Muslim traders I would expect it to have been found on Hausa and other arm daggers.

Cheers,

Iain
