My gratulations. I love african knifes. The second one is indeed of the Shona - sometimes called Mashona as well. This type of dagger is called Bakatwa. This interesting blade type is typical for these daggers. They often feature ornamental carvings on sheath and hilt as well. Take a look at mine I got in 2009 in South Africa.

Best
