What I can see in the pics it is a miniature of a hunting dagger. Generally this kind of a period miniature is well known. Due to my personal observations currently the collectors market is overflooded with fakes of this certain dagger model, produced in Solingen (or at least I saw all parts of this certain dagger fixed to a cardboard with a Solingen logo). Due to the certain finish and colors of the dagger shown here I have serious doubts it is a period example.

Parts at best. No frog stud is conclusive that it is not period--never finished.

These were imported into the U.S. in the late 1960's by a company named Globe Militaria, and sold for $15.00 at the time.
