Could be...and I saw something vaguely similar, described as French Naval. I'll re-check.
You spotted 'Dutch' first, many thanks. |

Why would it be naval?! Because you want it to be? -Dmitry
But of course, my friend, of course!  Still could be infantry. I was guessing naval because hilt is a known marine pattern and straight blades were popular with naval and finally because it appears to be a 'one off', something you wouldn't see in any other service at that time (army, artillery, infantry had their specific models/patterns) except private purchase. Boarders Away addressed these types and had some great ones illustrated... |
