Thank you Martin L.

That these are knives for sale to those who travel is apparent from the quality of the blades, hence my description as "bazaar knives." The leather work from these areas is good but I did not realize that the quality extended so widely in the region.

Perhaps my description as "West African" is as close as we can get to their origin.

Ian.
