Hi
I was underbider on this knife at the Bray auction Are you another Irish collector? Nice knife, I had to bow out on the bidding as I was more interested in the percussion pistol that followed , which I got. Regards Ken

No, not in Ireland, I am based in London. Glad you stopped bidding  Regarding the knife, the Fischer & Zirngible book says Baule, the Zirngible & Kubetz "panga na visu" book says Liberia, Dan tribe etc and the Oldman 1906 catalogue illustrates an example saying Fan tribe, Gabon. So perhaps its a case of take your pick ??
