A rare C.1800’s Scottish Highland Fleshing Knife.  These distinctive knives were used to remove the flesh from animals and were an important element in a hunter’s kit. It is probable that it would have been carried alongside a hunting sword or large dagger.   This example appears to have great age and was purchased at auction in the Scottish Highlands and is more than likely to come from that region.

With marine ivory grip and leaf-shaped blade

The knife comprises a chequered marine ivory grip and leaf-shaped blade.  In worn, used condition as it should be – they had a hard working life.  Blade length is 3 inches (6.5 inches overall).

Fine example of a Bavarian Model 1895 EM’s/NCO’s Pickelhaube.  Fur Gott + Koenig (?) and a name that I can’t make out.  These helmets were issued at the beginning of the First World War and were worn right through until 1918-1917 when they were replaced by the famous German Stahlhelm.  These helmets, although very attractive visually, were soon found to be completely useless in modern trench warfare.

Condition of the pickelhaube is very good

Assume that the name written inside the helmet is the original owner.   Condition is very good with only an old crease to the leather behind the state coat of arms.  A great untouched piece for the serious collector of Imperial German Pickelhaubes.  Length – end to end is 10 inches – width is 6 inches – would probably be a medium size.
