Some new finds in the last month, African

Thanks everyone,
Yes, I recognized the circle/dot markings discussed in the other thread and thought it interesting that these marks are so common in so many geographic areas.

Gavin, What do you see in the Sudanese knife that tells you that the handle is Rhino Horn ? I've never had anything with Rhino Horn so I have nothing to go by.

Anyone have any ideas on the age of these knives, I'm guessing 50-60 years or so, maybe more on the Sudanese knife.
