Knife from europe

Hi Chregu,
I really like utility/hunting type knives and this looks like a nice example. The tapered tang would suggest to me that this knife was intended for proper use as well as looking good. I tried to find other examples on the net, for a bit of comparison, but the only thing I could find that was relatively close in style was this 19thC French trousse in the Met. Great piece.
My Regards,
Norman.
