All these knives are super, from the functional to the spiritual/magical

Montino I do not know how you have been able to resist cleaning your examples with just a little oil and fine steel wool. Obviously I have regained my sanity

Oh My G*D, and ruin the patina of centuries? I can hear the outraged cries of museum conservators... "you desecrated your priceless collection!"

Ahhh yes, my famous collection of African throwing knives, years and millions spent gathering the rarest and strangest....

Actually, my 'collection' of Fang knife/currency exists only in my computer... I got the pic's from an on-line gallery whose name I now can't remember... Would you like me to post a few more?

Just found the link-

Oh and by the way, Tim, did I show you this other little bauble in my collection?
