photoOld knife - Niger - Tuareg $250.00
This is one of the best quality, most creatively designed Tuareg knives. It measures 13 1/4" long. Most, if not all, Tuareg men carry such a knife as part of their "formal" attire. Although functional, the knives are as important, if not moreso, as personal adornment. Please click on the image to see two more knives of comparable quality. The second one measures 14" long, the third 18 3/4".

photoSmall knives - new - Niger - Tuareg $25.00
These 4 small knives, though new, are genuine items that the Tuareg people actually do carry and use. They measure 5 1/2 to 6 1/4" long. The price is for each one.

photoSmall old knife - Niger - Tuareg $45.00
This genuine old, used knife would have been primarily used for leatherwork, a skill for which the Tuareg people are reknowned.
