Last offer I'm afraid then perhaps off to eBay (

)-

$1500

(what I paid for it nearly twenty years ago) and I'll also throw in shipping if in the U.S.

I've just learned my Forum mailbox was full and have cleared it if anyone has any questions. Also would still consider an offer if interested...

More interesting info just learned from this very Forum and other sources-

The arrow marking at the ricasso is the mark of the Barcelona dagger smith's guild used since the 17th c. and seen on many other cup-hilts of the period. So this blade isn't a German import after all.

Now accepting any offers for consideration. Finances are begging I do so-
