Recommendation? What is this??

[Zachary George]

Is there anybody able to help me in regards to information about this?

I don't know anything about it at all other then what is written on the sheath.

I found it the other day while I was cleaning out my grandfather's house after he passed away.

It's a Swedish hunting knife (made in/around Mora). Toledo may be a reseller The Swedish companies made good steel in Sweden.

Is a joke as in?
So it's not something that is uncommon

Toledo Steel International is a tool importer/exporter based in Australia. Their business seems to be mainly in measuring devices now. The knife is a standard Mora fixed blade.

Oh, so it's something much less spectacular then I had thought when I stumbled across this

They are pretty common all over the world. Many tool companies sold them as utility knives and heavy sloyd ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sloyd ) type knives.

This has nothing at all to do with the thread, but I just really like the fact that Sløyd has become a word in English.

So it would be ironic to stamp Toledo

Depending on whatever sentimental value it may have for you personally , you might want to keep it .

 

[Zachary George]

Oh regardless of its value, be it $1 or $25000 it was never being sold. It's something that will be kept with me for a long time.

As ironic as calling a company Down Under knives, when the knives are made in Asia and owned by somebody in (was it) Finland?

Well it may not be fancy but it should be a great knife.
Definitely looks to be a mora as has been said, and they are well regarded as good solid blades that cost very little for what you get.
