Hello all,
Bought this at a military fair last Sunday possibly German trench knife .
Blade is solid but the handle although it fits in the hand perfect may be a later addition.
Any ideas from anyone welcome.

Jim

I have never seen this knife. My money is it is field made. The leather strap looks like it is from a helmet's chin strap.
I too think the wood handle is a later addition.
The scabbard also seems to have had a retention strap
at one time, and it is missing it's chape (tip).
The blade though, is very nicely made............!
Regards,
Steve.
