    I picked up this knife yesterday for a super cheap price. My antique collection is all pocket knives and this one is my first fixed blade. I been doing research on this knife and it not that easy. And help would be appreciated.
    Thank you

      Not made for export since it doesn't have "Made in Germany" stamped on it.
    2. Flywalker Flywalker, 7 years ago
      So fake? Not sure if i follow
    3. blunderbuss2 blunderbuss2, 7 years ago
      Countries are required to put the name of origin on export items. For the home market & during wars, this is not done. Clear ?
    4. PostCardCollector PostCardCollector, 7 years ago
      Nope I can't.
      Follow you either
    5. blunderbuss2 blunderbuss2, 7 years ago
      Maybe somebody else can make it clearer.
    6. Flywalker Flywalker, 7 years ago
      Well i understand its missing the stamp. What were not understanding is what that means. Clear?
    7. SpiritBear, 7 years ago
      I think he's saying, it is a German-made knife that was not made for the international market, but was made only for their own German market?
    8. PostCardCollector PostCardCollector, 7 years ago
      Why was Germany even part of conversation? The poster never said anything about Germany to begin with. So I was befuddled at square one. But. I am not a knife collector, I just thought it was a cool knife.

      And SB grabs the brass ring.
    10. Flywalker Flywalker, 7 years ago
      I agree with post card. I never said anything about Germany. That said my main question was if anyone knew info on the knife. Truthfully i paid $25 canadian and just looking to see if it was made in BOB'S shed? From what i got so far is someone basically saying some old lady put this in her purse and took it to Canada that's why it doesn't have it's International stamp. Id like to thank everyone for your help thank you

      Address of maker is in Germany. The old lady & the purse is a good scenario & probably close.

      "Why was Germany even part of conversation?"

      "I never said anything about Germany."

      SOLINGEN is a German city known for blades (swords, knife...).

      What a collection !!
    16. whyatt whyatt, 7 years ago
      its german. blunderbuss hit this right on the head. probably a very well known cutler, I haven't tried researching it exactly, but id gladly put the money back in your pocket, if you think its a b.s. copy. lmk
    17. Flywalker Flywalker, 7 years ago
      Honestly im not complaining. I do thank everyone for thier info. I did know it was German when i posted thats why i didn't include it in my first statement. Sorry blunder if you think i was bitching. I work 12hour days and cant keep up to your 3 post in 7 hours. I do thank you for your knowledge you passed on.
    18. Flywalker Flywalker, 7 years ago
      And whyatt, im not going to sell this item. I might in time trade for pocket knives as i really enjoy them a lot more.
    19. whyatt whyatt, 7 years ago

    20. whyatt whyatt, 7 years ago
      my email address is thebaddroid@yahoo.com. got a bunch of knives you might like to see. maybe we can do some trading. I too, work 12 hrs a shift. night shift, so my time is limited too. otherwise, id post some of the vintage action figures and things that I have. wasn't trying to be an azz in my 1st reply. sorry bout that.

      this knife looks very much like the baron, Solingen stuff. but that's a crap shoot. still not sure, but if a trade develops , ill find out.
    21. Flywalker Flywalker, 7 years ago
