Hallo Wallace,

das Faschinenmesser ist Kriegsbeute aus dem 1870/71er Krieg. Verwendet wurde es u. a. zur Bewaffnung der Militärhandwerker. Hier die des 57. Infanterie-Regiments.

Bisher sind mir nur Mle 1831 als Aushilfsseitengewehr bekannt.

hello Ulffberth,
My german is not so good so now i just read your answer correctly.
I understand that to your knowledge there just is one model known in the world. Than i have an answer to my question! thanks for this. I also know only one model, but maybe someone knew a different one, but i don't expect there is one, just like you said.

Many thanks and greetings
