Tiv Dagger on Ebay

I won this small Tiv loop dagger on ebay today

. The seller thought it was Indian

anyway I think it will clean up nicely. Funny I have never seen a scabbard for one of these before. Anyone ever come across one with a scabbard?

Very nice. Beautiful shaped blade. I was was watching this one too. I only had one bolt left which I shot earlier. It would not have been able to go quite that high. I will have to build up more ammunition over the coming months.

What about this one (Unfortunately not mine)

Thanks Artzi! So looking at the scabbard are these loop daggers worn on the upper arm as in the Sudan daggers or is that a belt loop on this example?
