Could you please show the knife you refer to as SHONA?
As you well observe, it is quite likely that (BTW what is Helleri?) these knives are called by variant terms through the many tribal people in these regions, as we have discussed.
You probably misunderstood me.

For example, I indicated that this type of knife/blade is called Shona. To do this, just type in the site search - Shona.
Sorry, English is not my native language, so there may be a misunderstanding.
Best regards.
