Thanks for the reply. I have no issues with the club and spear and no problem with your pricing really. I have been collecting African tribal weapons for years, I worked in Africa for some years. I just haven't seen a shield like that, not just Google. Hence my caution. Thanks again for the response. Nice items. kodj (350) • 1:28 pm, Wed, 18 Jun

I have just received answer to photos I sent to a friend in South Africa. He confirms what you say and the shield is GOOD. Cheers. kodj (350) • 1:31 pm, Wed, 18 Jun

Don't worry, no, not rude at all. Another thing if I can. Is this the large or smaller type shield? That is, not counting the length of the stick, is the shield portion (cow hide) close to 5ft (150cm)? If half the size (approximately) could you also let me know please? I'm just concerned about postage/freight to South Island. Your additional items sound great also by the way. kodj (350) • 2:36 pm, Wed, 18 Jun

Hi Sheild is 920mm spear 1890mm which is quite different in itself as longer than a stabbing spear and yet shorter than a throwing one was told it would of been used by someone of high status as 4 club (460mm)its speaks for itself definitely different again Hopefully this helps bulldozer1969 (437) • Wednesday, 18 June 2025
