1 small bone dagger (pig - cassowary?) New-Guinea (23 cm)
Tribal club origin unknown - flat head- 37 cm
Tribal club origin unknown - with a ridge on top - 34 cm
ould love to know the origin of the 2 above....
Knoberrie style club 50 cm
Masai club 64 cm This one is certainly not old, as I brought it back from Kenya 16 years ago; It is however an genuinely tribally used piece.
Bontoc Igorot headhunters axe. Weight 550 grams, with an irregular blade thickness, obviously not made out of sjeet metal, but forged metal.
