African blades!
Got these two from a friend and he didnīt know much about them.... Unfortunately, I do not either....
My guess, is that the arm knife came from Sudan but I am not sure.... Please, any help at all should be very much appreciated..... Best, Stefan Sweden Last edited by Robert; 8th July 2017 at 04:09 AM. |

The top one is an ararait or wrist knife and is a specialized weapon usually associated with the Turkana Tribe in Kenya (East Africa).
The second is a bit harder, though I do wonder about a Masai origin, perhaps a knife length seme? |
