African whats it?
Hi All,
Got this item in a job lot.
Looking at pictures before i saw item in hand I taught it was a congolese short sword but the blade is wafer thin 2 mm or so and quiet flexible and springy.
overall length of 60cm
handle 24cm long and 11 cm at widest
blade 36 cm tapering from 11 to 5 cm
no visible means of securing blade into handle and decoration is v crude
Mods. if this proves to be ethnographic miscellania my apologies and please move thread.
Might be an egg flipper
Regards and thanks in advance to all,
Ken
