Question

Quote:
A finger hook from the Karamajong in Tansania. What's special about this one is the fact it has a double hook. Most of them only have one hook. Can be a gruesome concealed weapon.
Are you sure it's intended to be worn on the pinkie? I'd had expected them to be hold more like the Turkana finger knives?

How are they hold when used for eating?

Thanks!
Kai
