BTW, I just love the legged swords. Once this guy had a legged, curved double-edger. He wouldn't swap it though. Thought it was money, he did.

Default WOW ! ! !

Really nice find. I see there are quite a few pieces with scabbard.

I'm green with envy

What I love about finding a new item is the work in trying to identify it. This pile would keep me busy for at least a couple of weeks. There are more pieces in this pile than in my collection !

Default Brass Made Dagger

Another dagger, probably Kuba, central Zaire, with a brass made blade. highly decorative blade but also well made, hard and sharp. Probably 1930-1940 vintage.
