I have found a Kriegsmarine dagger by Malsch& Ambronn: I had never seen this maker before on a naval dagger and don't think it is shown or written about in any of the major reference books on the topic.

It's an early 3R production, with ship motif etch and hammered scabbard.

Does anyone has encountered one like these before?

Many thanks.
