In her book on Ottoman Arms, Astvatsaturian finishes the section on yataghans with a page of a "Standard Issue Military Yataghan", factory made from the second half of the 19th century.
There were also certain yataghan-like hangers in the Austrian army in the 19th century as well. However, I am not aware of such a model in the German army, but would be interestin to see if someone has a picture, ideally a picture of troops with the weapon.
