Oh dear !! yes, very dear
This just finished on eBay......Papua New Guinea ???? Obviously an African Tebu dagger , it seems some people have money to 'burn' ...even though the 'credit crunch' is still lingering
Interesting ....is the sellers 'authenticity pledge' http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.d...=STRK:MEWAX:IT Just goes to show that knowledge is the best weapon... Regards David |

he covered himself by saying it was FOUND in PNG, not that it originated there... semantics...
caveat emptor for sure... |

Hi Kronckew ,
I also hadn't noticed the addition of an eBayer's comment at the bottom of the listing ...stating that .... In my opinion this item is a rather typical Tedda (or Teda, part of the Toubou ethnic group)knife from Tibesti, Chad Best David |
