Congo/Gabon/W African dance axe?

My first thing for 2008. Still has to arrive but I cannot wait any longer

. I would like opinions from the African collectors like Freddy, Luc and others. It was not cheap but I think it is rare enough for the price. The over all length is 51cm. I guess the blade is 16cm so it is not big. One cannot see if it has any weight but it does look like there is a sharp edge. Possibly not a dance item? I just love the flourish to the blade and the handle also looks very nice. I will show other pictures when it arrives.
