I think that it is a Ngombe jemongo like shown from Luc in my other thread in post #10: http://www.vikingsword.com/vb/showthread.php?t=17387
Very similar but from a other tribe. Regards, Detlef |

Have received the bango yesterday. It is 48,5 cm long with a heavy and good worked blade. The diameter at the "arms" is 18 cm. Have cleaned the edges from the surface rust and have cleaned the blade from old dirt and grease. The copper wire at the handle have receiced a decent polish. I think the that I can't fix the wire binding at the end of the handle since I think this demage is caused by climate break from the wood. All comments are welcome.
