Hi Detlef, yes I did see your earlier post, we concur so it must be the truth

But seriously, attached an example with similar features which triggered my thoughts.

kind regards,
Eric

Hello Eric,

I think it's pointless to worry about where this blade came from! Without a handle and scabbard, it will be very difficult to assign the blade. And it's not a very special blade which would be worth giving it a "new" handle.

Regards,
Detlef

Not saying that's the case here, but this type of hilt isn't unheard of in Africa : https://www.africanarms.com/images/b...iver-39-cm.jpg
