Thanks everyone for the comments, I am very happy that my identification is confirmed.

After searching the forum, and Google, I have found no other examples than the two posted here. Can I conclude from this that these are rather scarce?

Mention has been made that these were ceremonial/ritual knives, does anyone have details of how they were used? Van Zonneveld writes only that they were worn by the groom at weddings.
