Iain, please donīt be unduly modest. I have only two takoubas, or what I consider/call "real Touareg takoubas", and neither them, nor their photos are with me, now. And then - two swords from this "Takouba Family" - one of them posted now, one posted sometimes before. But the wider region of "Borno State and its surroundings" is full of various types of swords, which were already discussed here, too. But let me post separate thread concerning one type, which is very simmilar to Teda/Daza swords, but is much heavier and I think was used a little bit more to the south west. We can compare it with this Takouba Family on one photo.
