Looks a rather weak design, especially where the thin flat square bit joins the socket. Kind of a use once and discard the shaft as you franticly try to un-scabbard your kaskara, Would look cool in an Ethiopian Christian parade tho.

Tks all! It's now clear it's from ethiopia! The only country from Africa that does not allowed colonization!
