Do anyone know if the Dark Elven Amulet with the inscription "To my best friend - C.B." means? Is it an item to a quest that I never heard about? Or is it some kind of inside joke? Or a comment on an event of some kind?

It is just an easteregg. This is a reference to Drizzt Do'urden, a dark elf character in several D&D based books and games (Icewind Dale, Baldur's Gate), who dual wields scimitars. His best friend is Cattie Brie.

I posted the same question in the german part of this forum few weeks ago, but we weren't able to find an answer.
I'm really glad, I found this solution.
Thx, Raze!

I do remember I answered such a question not long ago ... But I'm not sure about all of this, since I'm not familiar with (A)D&D lore.

There is also a list of eastereggs out there, I know. It should be within one of the link lists here.

When you people say eastereggs, what exactly do you mean?

Hidden things, references to other games, books, etc (like a logo in the game for a programmer's favourite soccer team).
