Hi Kai,

Have a look at the auction catalogue showing Dr. Leo S. Figiel’s collection page 64 no. 2058.

The hilt is not the same, and the blade is not quite the same, but close. Unfortunately both Figiel in his book. and the one who wrote the text to the auction catalogue were ‘very’ discreet when it came to mention from where the weapons came.
