Very nice Bill totally genuine perhaps 1930-40. This is my latest African find. Ball staff, diameter 4.5cm, shown next to a light knobkerrie.

Thanks for the kind words on the Kuba gents. Hope that some of the African collectors will comment.
Anything about the little kris? |

Budiknon Shield and a few other Moro pieces. Early Christmas presents. Let's see this would be Christmas of 2006, 2007 and 2008 -- maybe 2009?

Bill
I have been having a problem with Santa  He keeps stuffing my stocking with sharp pointy swords but he forgets the scabbards. So when I wake up on X-MAS day I find the swords have cut through the bottom of the stockings and they are sticking into my nice wood floors   Can you email him and let him know of the problem since he must really like you because he brings you such nice toys  Lew |

Daayum, all I get are socks and underoos. It does pay to be good. I see that shield was made for you. The letter "M" at the top of it. Can you post a photo of the Barung on the right, it seems to be in the shadows.

Got this today. 102cm long. I have been admiring it all afternoon with very cold lager and some lovely biltong a local South African chap down the road makes. Rather nice

Cheap, cheap, cheap
I found this one recently at an antique market.
I think it's a Hadendoa dagger. Don't think it's very old, but it's complete with its leather sheath. And............it was cheap at only 5 Euro.
