Large knife found in river near Kaliningrad (formerly Königsberg).
Knife lenght is 39 cm. I can't see any markings (knife is not cleaned yet).
I would be grateful for any help to ID and date it correctly.

Yes it's a "Bauernwehr'. German, 15. - 17. century. Shown e.g. in Auction 54 - Hermann-historica.de
