To me it looks like a vintage artistic addition to the French Nontron folder. See attached. Maybe someone will show the knife as I am too technically challenged to do it myself.

Interesting knife. Is a French hunying knife? The animal is confusing from the pictures shown. To me it appears to have an agressive wild boar snout and possbly antlers. I would not have thought any creative would see a boat snout with antlers. Just a view probably not helping.
