Thanks for the reply!
From the blade I was thinking of a misericordia but the handle let me doubt it. After seeing the images Cerjak posted I am totally with you that it is one. In German they are called "Gnadgott" which means mercy of god, so same meaning like misere corde.

The one on Cerjaks pictures is dated 1575, do you think the piece in question should be dated also end of 16th century?

Is there a recommended way to preserve it? Maybe with wax/paraffin?

Thanks and kind regards
Andreas
