African Three-Dagger sets

Well I see the suggestion that these can be a part of ceremonial use. The question is, what ceremony?

Here is a ceremonial dance. As you can see, they are using some well made kaskaras and not much thuluth sheet steel blades :-)

Well maybe not ceremonial per say but maybe they were used as talisman for protection in battle? Otherwise my original theory still stands that these were made as keepsakes for the British to take back home. There is one high quality dagger that Charles bought years ago maybe he still has a picture of it he can post?
