Background on this regiment: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1st_Fo...chute_Regiment
This example that recently came out of the woodwork is marked on the ricasso: "Rodrigues 1880 Amsterdam".
In pre-internet days this was a well-known hardware store in the Netherlands, and with an owner who was a knife afi with a fondness for quality.
Sadly he and his wife died in 1977 in the Tenerife aircrash, while going on the first holiday of their life.
They had no successors.
