I cannot reveal this here, because it is my verification for when another one would pop up.

So I am convinced, that the dagger was an order by Malsch & Ambronn at the WKC firm, but the blade was custom etched for them.

Herman,

I'm sorry, but this assumption looks illogical. If Malsch & Ambronn would order this blade by WKC, so would WKC have performed the etching with their own standard patterns. That is, this etching, on the contrary, would have to be identical to the etching from WKC and should not have the differences that you are talking about.

Best,
Oleg.
