Any Knife collectors here? Got a question

[BlackMack177]

After watching deadliest Warrior reruns on netflix, I have taken an interest in collecting ancient weaponry and swords. I would prefer ones that are usable so I can train with them

I'm looking in particular for this weapon. The Kpinga Throwing knife of the Azande tribe in Africa

Anyone know where I can buy this? None of the sites I look on seems to sell them

I don't see African knives, but the Lanes Armoury has authentic antiques:

I read that the kpinga is also called a Hunga Munga, danisco, goleyo, or njiga if that helps in your search.

I wouldn't say I collect knives, however I have a collection of practical knives that I use for various tasks.

- A set of expensive kitchen knives from CUTCO.
- A couple bushcraft knives, made by Khukuri House (Nepal) and Ka-bar.
- A fishers fillet knife by CUTCO.
- And a couple folders made by Spyderco, generally have one on me whenever I'm out of the house.
- Also have a couple handmade African hunters knives, 1960s vintage.

Not a collector, but a modest collection
