			I have bought recently this one and think that it is as well a contemporary one, correct? It is 51,5 cm complete with a blade length from 31 cm.

			Thank you Ian,  
		
		
		
		
		
		
		
	the seller stated it is from the 1930/40s but I have thought already that it isn't old like this but like you I like the good workmanship. Best, Detlef  |

			Interesting. I wonder if they were used in an ice-pick grip with the cross protecting the upper side of the hand. My Touareg dagger is much too heavy to carry on the arm, I suspect it was attached to their saddles.
