Help by a Congo knife requested

[Sajen]

I am sure someone will be able to enlighten me from which tribe this knife coming and maybe how it is called. Thank you in advance.

The books I have say this type of knife is used by the Ngombe and Poto tribal groups (East-Central Congo). However, I think such attributions can be quite fluid and probably "style areas" is a better concept...

Regards.

Hello Colin,

thank you very much, now when you have given me the hint I've found similar knives in "panga na visu". Thank you very much again.
