Comments on Congolese Axe
Hi I have been offered the below congolese axe. Is there anyone who could give me some detailed information on where this style of axe comes from, how old, if old at all, and any other thoughts. The photos are not great but the shaft is covered with brass wire. The carving itself seems noit bad but I'm a bit concerned about what looks like a break halfway along the axe blade and possibly a weld or new section added on. Thanks.
