Hi! Thank you both for answers. No! I didn't bought it. I knew that something was "fishy", but did not knew what, that's why I have asked. 

Have a nice day and thank you again for your help. 

Hello!

I found this article on sale as military knife, and as I searched for information, I found that it may be British. Can someone please confirm that is a British ww2 fighting knife? 

Thank you. 

Hello gentlemen's, I really need your help in this matter. I don't know if is the right place to post this but I don't know where else to post it.

It appears to be a cup prize for shooting, given by some soldiers to someone... Does anybody know more about this item/s?

Any information will be more that wellcomed.

Thank you,

Alex.

Thank you Paul! 

Thank you very much for your answer. The owner said that the award was presented to his grad,grandfather who was minister of defence for 3 months, during 1859-1866 period in the newly formed Principality of Romania. Can this be true? Does this model connect to that time period? Of course now comes another question. The guy wants to sell it. He locked on a selling site and he gave me a price but that was a price for a Turkish made not European. How much would be de difference between these two? Thank you in advance for future answers. 

Best regards, 

Alex

Do you still have the order? any findings regading the manufacturers name? does it have a mark on the body of the order?
