SANGI KNIFE
Hi Sir Ian,
I saw this picture reference of sangi knives.
.'The one that I've posted here could very well be in the likeness of the 'kiping' type (b). Only my blade is said to come from the Kaolo tribe. I've noticed the different scabbard and blade profiles of item a,b and c. 'ilap' and 'kiping' might be the local dialect? for these types of knives. Just thinking.
We have these variants (a,b,c, in our collection). Will post it.
Regards
Yves
