I Could be wrong but it looks like some of the typical West African timber types to me, photos of end grain rather than side grain would help massivly though.

Its a lovely piece, great blade, workmanship, inscription etc.

Wish it was mine!

Sorry for taking so long to test the handle. I finally got around to it today and it turns out that the handle is made of wood. Also, I was wondering if it was alright for someone to e-mail me with an estimate of the value of this knife or let me know how I could find that out. I don't plan on selling it but am just curious. Thanks again to everyone who helped me find out info on this knife. Here's my e-mail: jswillems@sbcglobal.net
