MASHONA KNIFE ?

[thinreadline]

This is what I beleive to be a Mashona knife .. it is very small but exquisitely bound , as they say .. 5 inches long overall. It came along with the contents of a small Boer War / Zulu War museum which we bought 10 years ago .. mainly for the ethnographic artefacts.

Hi Thinredline

Welcome

Yes this is an older Shona dagger minus it's scabbard.
