The sword is wrong and is too long, sticks out above the flanking stars.

It should represent 2nd standard silver Haarlem but then the year letter B should be ...

Yes, I believe you are right Amsterdam, year letter R likely for 1751. I don't recognize any master mark.

Hi, welcome to the forum.
Master's mark IL with a 5 pointed star in the center, in a rectangle with rounded corners, perhaps Irish, Dublin. See I*L, attributed to John Laughlin Senior.

This versatile utensil combines the functionality of a soup ladle and a strainer. Not just a soup ladle, this utensil can also be used as a strainer for hot pot, stew, fried foods, chicken, and more. Its pointed spout enables precise soup pouring, giving you better control over the liquid portion ...

Fake French hallmarks, I agree with Blakstone. See Marc Rosenberg, Der Goldschmiede Merkzeigen IV. Band/Ausland und Byzanz Frankreich# 6514 , and see the differences.

No, I think you didn't make an error, it is not the mark of Ernest Compère. These French hallmarks are only used between 1819-1838. To me the letters appears to be B animal C

Perhaps a dromedary?

Turkey, after 1943, compulsory hallmarking was discontinued, the silver standards of 800 and 900 are continued. Currently, there is no formal hallmarking in Turkey. Precious metals are marked at the discretion of the maker. Most complete marks include a maker, fineness and country of origin. These ...

Hi, welcome to the forum. Without a maker's mark, not French, perhaps Belgian. To be sure it is solid silver I would have it tested.

In the book Crowning glory Silver Torah Ornaments of the Jewish museum, New York by Rafi Grafman, edit​ed by Vivian B. Mann. In Part IV. Pointers, we read; many pionters no hallmarks, some pointers have an inscription sometimes on back of hand or upper arm like ‎פ ‎‎א or ‎ה‎ מ‎ ‎ה, with the remark ...

I don't think so, it's not plausible to me. The mark is BI in italics, not con-joined. If you see it as possible, you cannot attribute it, but at most mention it.
As you say yourself, you don't come across a Dutch silver knife handle with the image of soldiers, so perhaps not Dutch but Continental ...

You say it is determined but I would say the mark possibly of..... and with a question mark.

We know now, not East Frisian, not Baltic and no luck for Denmark.

Sometimes it is good to re-think about it again. In the Dutch guild period, twice a master mark, where was it customary ?
In Groningen this was used from around 1725 ...
