Fully wire-wrapped Zulu Knobkerrie

This is fascinating. I have come across a club with a similar woven metal exterior in Yale University Art Gallery’s collection, though the knob on that one is significantly larger than yours. Unfortunately, the object is not currently accessible to the public as it is still being transferred from its donor, but I have taken a few pictures while I had my hands on it.

Could you share the link to the other example you found on this site? I have only seen an item with such an intricately woven metal shell once (twice after stumbling upon this post) and am eager for new examples.
