i have 2 of these Cutlasses, similar to the one on the left. One has a decorative figure of a male handle, the other has a decorative figure of a female. They were given to me in Kenya as a wedding gift in 1977. I know they were purchased in Nigeria and were referred to as "Nigerian Wedding Swords" I was thinking of selling them and was wondering how much they might be worth? Any input from yourselves would be greatly appreciated. I can always send photos too
Thanking you
