Small sudanese dagger
2 Attachment(s)
Hi all! I have bought this one, seems a nice one even if the blade seems heavy pitted from rust. Well I wait until it's here for a good clean and than I'll see what I have in the hands :) The seller says that on the handle is bone
|
Hi Flavio,
nice arm dagger, if the pommel end is silver ..there is a good chance that the bone could be elephant Ivory. Regards David |
Hello David, the seller says that the pommel is silver... I hope you're right and from pics seems ivory more than bone. Thank you :)

Flavio
The blade needs a good cleaning otherwise its a nice old example early 20th century 1900 and yes I think it's silver and ivory :) Regards. Lew |

WONDERFUL COLLECTION!!!! Thank you Lew :)

Although the african weapons are not my field of interest and admiration, I must say that looking at this small collection a feeling of admiration for some pieces comes up.
Nice pieces Lew, thanks for sharing |
I love the rich patina on yours Flavio. Very nice.
|
Thank you Charles, I hope to post better pictures soon :)
P.S. ok guys what do you think to show here your examples of this kind of dagger as a reference thread and for the happiness of all of us that love them? :) |
Do you remember this one from Oriental-Arms?
|
EXCELLENT PIECE!!!! Thank you :)
|
One really has to wonder if it is not from the same maker as the 4th one down in Lew's fine collection above.

Somewhere around 24/25 cms I guess.
The toppart is ivory with a silver ferule The leatherwork on these scabbards is always amazing. How do they make them ? so fine / firm and of various kinds of leather. |
