Bayonets of Imperial Germany 1871-1918

Doing my search online I found T.F. Bastet markings on speed skates from 1890-1900. I do remember the last time we talked about this knife I did find some shaving style folding knives. But there were not any that stuck out when folded.

I looked up the German style hunting knives / cutlass (Hirschfanger) and most of them had some kind of hand guard on it and they had some length to them usually around 20". I think the total length of my blade is around 12" to 14". So I'm not sure if it would be a hunting style, but the blade is thick enough to do some damage.

But they were definitely in Amsterdam. It be cool to find one that is close to what I have with some kind of description. I'll keep on searching.
