Description
-
From 1903, Strümpell was no longer in West Cameroon, but in North Cameroon. In that year, however, violent military interventions took place to "pacify" the region under Wilhelm Langheld. It is possible that the knife was forcibly appropriated by members of the German Schutztruppe and later handed over to Strümpell.
