Thanks for the comments.
This dagger shows influences from Hausa, Zande and Kreish. These daggers were widely used by numerous African cultures, and I believe attributing them to any one culture can be problematic. Respectfully, Yuri |

A similar Kirdi dagger from the Mayo-Sava department of the Far North of Cameroon from my collection, approximately the second half of the 20th century.

I received the dagger and compared it with Kirdi's dagger.
Judge for yourself. |
