Hello,

Just got this African blade and I have no idea what it is. So please help me with that!

Thank you for your comments!

Now I know what I have! :)

I am now looking for one similar to the one Detlef had. I simply love the shapes of these knives. :o

Thanks Marius!
But this type of knife is not rare so you could easily find another one yourself.

Where do you get your stands from, or more exactly where do you have them made?
