These knives were imported by an array of companies during the 50's and 60's. Made in Solingen, Germany by one of the firms in the area (possibly Linder?). They are not rare or valuable knives and can find them at flea markets and antqiue stores all the time. :thumbup:

Still it's a good, solid German knife. If it was your dad's, I reckon I'd hold onto it and enjoy it.
