			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..

			Hello Maria and welcome to the forum !!! It's always great when someone new joins our little group and it is especially nice when they post new pictures of such great looking sharp pointy items such as yours. Thou I only collect Philippine weapons I am truly looking forward to your next posting of more items from your collection of African weapons.
