Edited:
Designed by Rudolf Koch in 1917 for the Klingspor foundry, which sold it at Maximilian.
The blade engraving may have beens based on the original design rather than a digital revival.
There are several legitimate digital versions.
One by G. Helzel under the name Maximilian. Good quality clean digitization which is available for purchase only from his website, which is complex to navigate.
There is also LTMaximilian, now DS-Maximilian. See next post.
Another is by Stephen Miggas as Gothicus.
The digital preview of Gothicus at Myfonts does not show the German double s/tz that is in the font.
The quality of this digitization is rather poor.
There is also a digital Maximilian by Deiter Steffmann that, based on his stated practice of taking the digital outlines of obscure fonts created by other font-makers and adding characters, accents and sharing the results as a free font, I would recommend against using. BTW the quality of this digitization is also rather poor.

LTMaximilian now DS-Maximilian, was created by Gerda Delbanco in the 1990s.

Good quality clean digitization, but somewhat expensive.
