Unusual African knife
This knife is a recent find. The blade is well forged with shallow fluting (neads a little cleaning).
The books I have with examples of this type, describe them variously as :-
Fan, Gaboon, war knife
Baule, execution knife
Liberia, Dan, Ngere, Kru, Grebo
Can anyone help with a definitive attribution ? Any photographs, comparable examples etc would be helpful...
Thanks in advance.
