Just picked up a d peres traditional MOP single blade

[Captain O]

It has a 2" handle and a 1.5" blade (it looks as if it is 3/4 swaged on the blade's spine) This little beauty from Solingen Germany looks as if the blade is 1095 steel.

I don't know how old it is, but I would venture a guess at about 60 years.

Any thoughts, comments?

Hi and welcome!
The best way to get the answers you're looking for is posting pictures (especially of the tang - both sides).

Solingen carbon blade steel is usually C75.

Love to see pics of the knife and tang markings.
