I think maybe an 8mm Mauser.

Also, there is some sort of etching on the rear of the handle, covered
by rust. Is there some way to clean off rust without destroying
etching?


Electro de-rusting would be nice if you did not have dissimilar
metals riveted together. Not sure with what you have.

Good Luck,
DoN.
