Hello Alan,

I suspect this latter example is a recent recreation of an Italian hunting knife. Anyhow, I don't think it is "enthnographically correct."

Thank you for your further comments gentlemen.

Tell me Marius, why don't you think the latter example is "enthnographically correct." ?

I recognise that the scabbard is a bit gauche, but how about the knife itself?

If not ethnographically correct, where do you think it might have originated?
