Group of African Weapons
Yes they are all from the Congo & a very nice trio.. Congo weapons are my favourites.
The first is a Salampasu People Sword from Southern Zaire also widely used by the Chokwe People. The second is a Mangbetu People Trumbash, as already identified by Jim. The third, as identified by Mahratt, is a Kuba People Knife called an IKUL. ( Peace Knife ) I can only hazard a rough guess for the age which is late 19th C to first half of the 20th C . Thanks for sharing. |

Don't know anything about the objects, but the photography is first rate.

3 old knives, good stuff to begin a collection of african weapons, but not the best quality.
