This is one of the best quality, most creatively designed Tuareg knives. It measures 13 1/4" long. Most, if not all, Tuareg men carry such a knife as part of their "formal" attire. Although functional, the knives are as important, if not moreso, as personal adornment. Please click on the image to see two more knives of comparable quality. The second one measures 14" long, the third 18 3/4".
