Thanks for the replies. I was hoping that it was not "made for sale." You never really know. It has a nice feel, solid.  
 
When I got it from James Willis, he said ..... just kidding! Really did get it on eBay.  
 
Will make a tag that says "Ikula Dagger from the Kuba people, made for a rich person." 
 
Neat wooden dagger Freddy. For what sort of ceremonies did they use these? The lunar movements? 
 
I like David's suggestion, but might use pitch. Is that what they originally used?
