This is a great example of a Zulu Iklwa made in the Mid-19th Century, with a typical blade and good flare to the end of the haft. Many Zulu weapons were collected by the British troops and brought back to the UK as souvenirs after the Anglo-Zulu War of 1879.

The 290mm blade has a raised medial ridge. The blade is 38mm at its widest and is in good condition with forge marks and a great patina that add to its character.

The blade is secured firmly within the haft and woven ilala palm strips were added to strengthen the bond. The woven palm binding is in very good condition. The blade is firm in the haft.

The haft has a good flare to the end and a wonderful patina. The total length of the iklwa is 141cm or 55.5 inches.

This excellent mid-19th Century Iklwa will make a superb addition to any Anglo-Zulu War collection.
