Nice daggers. I have not seen one with the triangular leather end to the scabbard before. This type I have seen attributed to Agadez in Niger, based on examples in the Quai Branly. A search of the Quai Branly database might be able to produce some results with similar decoration that may assist in dating.

Thanks, the tip of the scabbard reminds me of the tip of the tuareg spear, allar.
