Hi Ben,

Do you have any age, other information or provenance on yours?

I really like this sort of strong simple metal work and design. Often seen on African weapons. Reminds me of Japanese aesthetics of form, just lacking decoration and coloured metals.

Hi Bill the only thing I now is that I have it from an old time collector it was in his collection more than 40 years .

so it must be at least 50 years old I have it almost 10 years .
