They have camels in China...
But this has nothing to do with camels and whip...
It's a Chinese sword made of coins...

Yep you are right. On a closer look (magnified) it is NOT a whip but a coin sword.

Hi All,

I believe the African knife is a bakatwa of the Shona people. See Spring's African Arms and Armor pg 134.

Sincerely,
