African whats it?
Hi All,
Got this item in a job lot. Looking at pictures before i saw item in hand I taught it was a congolese short sword but the blade is wafer thin 2 mm or so and quiet flexible and springy. overall length of 60cm handle 24cm long and 11 cm at widest blade 36 cm tapering from 11 to 5 cm no visible means of securing blade into handle and decoration is v crude Mods. if this proves to be ethnographic miscellania my apologies and please move thread. Might be an egg flipper Regards and thanks in advance to all, Ken |
