ARTIFACT: This is a very nice example of a circa early twentieth century Congolese battle axe. The blade hooks at an almost 90 degree angle out from oval ball at the top of the dark wood handle. The blade resembles a like a lobster claw, and is doubly serrated. One side of the blade only is fullered in a slight arc. The ball has very minimal decoration on it and some cross-hatching right below it.

VINTAGE: Circa early 1900s.

SIZE: Handle: approximately 18-1/2" in length x 2-1/4" in width; blade only: approximately 6" out and 6" down and 1-3/8" in width at the widest part.

MATERIALS / CONSTRUCTION: Steel, wood.

ATTACHMENT: None.

MARKINGS: None.

ITEM NOTES: This is from a foreign weapons collection which we will be listing more of over the next few months. VFEX12 LAGEX11/12 PSVAIEX06/16 SAEJX02/22
