Mystery 21.5" Spear Head??

Thank You for your messages.

Here are a few more detailed pictures of the Kora and Bichwa.

The Kora is well made and still sharp. Rather substantial blade.

The Bichwa is about 9" long and has brass rosettes on both sides. Nice little weapon.

Somebody had a great collection which has now filled some holes in Mine.

Best Regards
Rob

Really nice. Is that pattern welding I see on the Bichwa?

Hello

The Bichwa definitely has pattern welding but is is subtle at this point.

Cheers
Rob

Seeing as it's next to that awesome Kora and Kukri, my guess is Nepal?
