Hi everyone my name is Matt Cox, I live in Tucson Arizona and I collect and study weapons and tools from the paleolithic to the colonial periods. I have been lurking around for a while and am impressed with knowledgeable and thoughtful discussions that take place here.
I thought I would start off with my latest purchase. It's made of brass and I'm assuming it's Yoruba based on the whimsical animals on the handle but it's just a guess. A cursory look in my books and on the net but hasn't produced a good match yet. I would welcome any thoughts you guys might have.
