Well I might say mid-19c based on the style and size of the pommel and the blade.

Good old fighter, with great patina on the ivory pommel.
Surely a great birthdaypresent! Congrats, Maurice |

Hello Robert,
Congrats, that's a really superb selection of interesting pieces! Seems like your wife is trying to extend your collection southwards into Moro regions...  BTW, maybe you could convince your better half to offer a crash course on selecting ethnographic pieces for those partners of ours who are less experienced with selecting nice gifts. That would be a great community service!  I'd like to see those blades etched! Regards, Kai |
