Hi Tim,
These knives are generally from the Luba (from Kasaļ), Lulua an Kete.
But also Kuba tribes.
Here some different forms.

Hi Tim,

Nothing to do with weapons (I like you Luba sword ), but here's a Lulua mask belonging to a Dutch friend.

Thanks for the great pictures chaps. I am sure many enjoyed them. I am most pleased with the mask find and just had to show it.
