Manolo
Your top dagger is of the Omdurman style (thats my classification) which was very popular during the late 1890s-1900 a nice example. Warrens seems more Hadendoa to me and probably dates from about 1918-45.Lew |

Yup, I remember the discussion we had when I got it. Was I a happy camper that day
The blade's got Umdurman written on it, so your classification is most applicable.

OH MY ! after seeing all of your knives I find myself running to the mailbox looking for mine and I know it was only mailed yesterday
I've got my eye on another of these beautiful knives so I think the virus has hit me also. Warren in Arizona |
