Here's another that I just bought from Ebay that hasn't arrived yet:
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...e=STRK:MEWN:IT
My first impression when I saw it was of one of those African dance wands that were seen a couple of years ago, but the more I looked at it, the more it reminded me of a variant of an executioner's sword that I'd seen recently with a very similar blade........I can't remember the tribal designation, but at the time the comment was made that it was much less common than the Nagala form.
The more I looked at the weight and size of this one, the more it intruiged me until I just HAD to actually see and hold it.
What can I say...the pieces that are unusual just keep piqueing my curiosity to the point that I can't resist! **grin**
All of the time spent trying to identify them makes them more than just an impulse as well.
