Questions on a Tenegre

Hello TiTo Gunongo,

I can't believe that I missed this on ebay,

was it a recent purchase? No matter, it is a great piece with good carving on the hilt and scabbard. The pointed tip scabbards like this one I will leave to the experts to determine the age of, though I have seen pieces like this that were purported to be of pre WWII origin. Regardless I would have loved to added it to my own collection. My congratulations on a very nice addition to your own.
