Hi Kino, please show the whole weapon. It is Sudanese but is it an axe or throwing knife? looks very interesting. Raja translated a Sundanese axe for me a year or so back.I will repost it latter in this thread to compare. Tim.

Hello Kino,

The first pic, the inscription on the right says "What God Wills", on the left is says "There is only one god, and no strength nor will is with one other than god".

On the second pic, the inscription on the right reads "A victory from god and conquest is close at hand". Sorry, I cannot read the inscription on the left. Its a bit unclear.
