This Kuba Ikul Knife is a beautifully crafted ceremonial weapon from the Kuba people of the Congo.

Known for its distinctive leaf-shaped blade and intricate handle, the Ikul knife was traditionally carried by Kuba nobility as a symbol of power and prestige rather than for combat.

The exquisite craftsmanship, with detailed carving and polished metal, reflects the Kuba’s renowned artistic traditions and their emphasis on status symbols during the 19th and early 20th centuries.

Ideal for collectors of African tribal art or historical weaponry, this Kuba Ikul knife is a stunning representation of cultural heritage and artistry from Central Africa.
