Hello gents, I can add some research results, unfortunately nothing which leads to further insights:

I did contact Tom Wittmann and he did remember the sale of the portepee/dagger and the showing of the photograph but could not remember any further facts and why he did classify the certain portepee as "lower grad diplomat s" portepee.

The certain portepee has the proper, delicate dimension we all know and love on true diplomat s silver portepees! Here a photograph for comparison. A common army portepee with the certain portepee and a silver diplomat s portepee.

Any help on the rare portepee would be appreciated. I wonder if really nobody of our bic collectorship has seen such a portepee beside the one sold bY TTW and JRBM:

Regards,
