Baselard information and sources

I'm working on an article showcasing the Baselard style dagger.  I would be indebted to one and all who post any reference book, website, museum link or photograph regarding baselards.

Thank you,

That sounds great. I would love to read it. Unfortunately I'm not at all an expert on them, so I'm not the right one to ask. Anyone else know some good references?
