You hear that boys? So stop yer cussin' and behave yourselves! There is a lady in the house!

Welcome to the forum Maria. While women do seem less likely to be drawn to weapons collection i have know a few who join you in their enthusiasm. African is not my thing in terms of collecting, but i have always appreciated it on form alone and look forward to seeing some of your collections.

Just to show you some pieces found on the net. Here are four of my babies.

One throwing knife Banda, one Mangbetu knife, one Gbaya knife and my Fang with cooper and silver thread.

Hello Maria,

a warm welcome from me as well!

Nice african knifes you have there, not my area of collecting but I like them!

Regards,

Detlef

Welcome Maria!

Beautiful collection, I really like the 2 on the right!

Would love to see your whole collection :-)

Hi Maria.
Welcome to the Forum and I hope it is as rewarding for you as it has been for me. Our collecting is varied, but it is interesting to see and learn about weapons other than our own.
Regards Stuart

Welcome aboard, Maria. Very nice pieces, and nicely photographed. I could so collect African blades. But alas, eight collections is enough. Or, is it nine or... Yes, I have severe, cronic, collector's A.D.D..

As those before me have said, welcome Maria!

Very nice to see a lady collector within these pages and a mighty fine start with those 4 very fine African knives, I too look forward to seeing more.
