a different kind of Aesculap

I doubt anyone of you have ever seen an Aesculap like this..its a so called “amputation knife”.
They used it to cut thru muscle and tendons tissue to expose the bone for a needed amputation with a bonesaw, its realy razor sharp, my thumb knows it is, LOL.
Darn it gave me a real WW2 injury, about half an inch long and 4 mm deep…LOL, just whiped the blade with a cloth….pressed a bit to hard!
It has a lovely engraved dedication on its grip on one side and on the other side the Aesculap logo.
Dedication: Aufrichtigen Dank 29.10.43 Ihr Ludi Schwenzer / Sincere thanks 29.10.43 your Ludi Schwenzer

Its a very long knife, as you can see its 35cm (13.8 inch), its a light weight one too, the grip is hollow, the blade is full stainless steel.
The blade enthousiastics will instantly see that the blade has all of the Original crossgrain still present! ;)

It comes from an elite Doctor’s legacy, and most likely the knife is a gift from a junior doctor that he monitored/mentored.
Enjoy this strange third reich blade, i doubt you will ever come accross a second one.
Regards,
Ger

Boer War unidentified Ordance

Hi Everyone

Came across this amazing piece of ordnance in New Zealand today

i gather its Boer War, its a 15 pounder with a time fuse of the period
The most fascinating part to it…… is it has a grappling projectile inside the round.
i say grappling because thats what it looks like it could be used for.

Fuse marks- 10/00 R(arrow)L IV 722 p
Steel Fuse part- S5
Timer - 0-18 , (inside time has a) - N D
Round base- 15 DR III, F S, RL
Driving Band- K, BCO

Can anyone help identify it or point us to reference they might know of that might mention this type of ordnance being used.

i have posted lots of pictures of it. im sorry if its too many
