Jim,
Thank you for your input. Although the blade is rather thick it isn't as far as i can see a forged blade but a sheet like steel blade like you noticed. Thanks and regards, Henk |

Hello folks, we thought these pictures of some of our new arrivals might be of interest. We've got them marked down as Somali or Danikil. The beatiful wire bound head in the lowest picture we've had a while and the quility of the workmanship is superb. The hafts on all appear to be wood.
Regards Andy and Karina |
