Hi everyone,

Can someone please help me identify the possible age, origin and maker of this Solingen knife?

Knife appears to be all hand-made including the sheath. The handle is made of what appears to be walrus(?) tusk, with a unknown animal(?) carved in high relief, handle lacking its pommel and sheath rivets with rosehead-type heads.

Knife Size approx: 8-1/2 inches.

Thank you all in advance for your time and help.

Kind regards,
Jo
