African Maasai seme
length: 23"
Nice solid Maasai seme. Meaty central ridge, thick blade sharpened at the
tip 6". Would pack quite a wallop. Wooden handle and scabbard stitched into
traditional red leather covering. Some old impacts and repairs to the tip,
this sword's been used and came through the ordeal with flying colors and
only a bit of resharpening and dent straightening. It's in excellent shape
and wasn't allowed to rust as so many of these weapons were. Most
robust seme I've ever owned.

blade width: 13/16" base, 2 1/4" maximum
