Can someone help identify this insignia?

That my friend, looks somewhat like part of the oakleaves and swords for a Knight's Cross. How large is it?

If it's generally large (Like maybe the size of an Iron Cross) I would think that it is a decoration for Infantry Jagers, such as ski troops, (Due to the oakleaves) but I'm not sure.

It reminds me of the kind of clasps found on semi or unofficial WW1 medals issued by veterans' organisations.

The Jäger badge did not have a sword.

Sorry, you are correct, I was thinking of the ski-jager badge, but I know that I have seen this one before.
