15 Awesome African Sword Types You Never Knew Existed! How many of these did you know?

In this video I’m going to share my awesome collection of antique African swords. African sword types are surprisingly underrated, but they should be at the top of the charts when it comes to weaponry.

I’ll look at a range of weapons from all over Africa. From the Ol Alem or Ida sword, to the African Konda or Kuba sword, several African curved swords and of course the incredible African sickle, hook or Shotel sword. We will look at the nimcha, flyssa, takouba, kaskara, manding, ada, afena/akrafena, ngombe, kuba, mambele, shotel, gile and more!
