Knife

Not looking for compliments shithead. And have tried several Google searches for the guy, company, and for it to have a bear handle. Am not finding matches to this specifically. Only more recent ones

Aw fuck yeah Jimping that makes it a highspeedlowdrag figtin' mans knive 100% nutn approved you should save that for the boogaloo

Have someone carbon date it for you then, the result might not surprise you as a cheap knife can look that trashy in a year.

180 year old company. I doubt it will be an easy task to find the model number. The fact that it actually says 'Germany', spelled in the English way, makes me think this is likely a postwar item. But I am not the last word on this.

If you can't discern that my post was a send-up of the kind of personalities we commonly encounter on Jow Forums, if you really thought it was a serious post, then the one with autism is you.

Thank u for the first guy to actually help

Good knife, cold steel. Pick one.

Basic copy of a common pattern. Probably copy of a marbles knife.

You found the point of the joke. Good job. Ask your mom if you can go play Roblox now.

Robert Klaas has made knives in Solingen since the 1830s. This is almost certainly a pre-war knife due to the hand-finished aspect to the blade and fuller. Industry took a leap after the wars.

Possible, we had our speculations that maybe the handle was added after. Don't know

Looks like someone broke their knife and added a new grip.

That would be interesting to know. The guy who bought it said it was covered in rust and he tried to clean it up best he could

>Thinks it's a pre-war knife.
>It says "Germany" in English.

I don't know what Roblox is or who my mom is. I do fuck your twink dad from time to time. Should I ask him?

>"Hey Jow Forums, I'm literally gay!"
But we already knew you were a faggot.

What is your point?

He's got nothing better to do than to talk shit to everyone here and not help

>makes low quality 'ironic' posts
>tries to show how smart he is
>tries to play off 's comment without knowing any more than he did
>doesnt realize that there was a British campaign to have imports stamped 'Made In Germany' since the 1880s
Solingen cutlery manufacturers were one of the largest export industries in Germany. To stamp a product Made In Germany would be par for the course.
Retard.

>gets BTFO
>makes stuff up
>angerposts
you tried.

Do not listen to the tripfag. He's 98 IQ and off his meds. That's a lovely knife, and a good addition to any collection. It's true it my no be worth much resale, though.

>spends 9 minutes googling the Merchandise Marks Act of 1887
>holy shit I can't come back from this
>fuck it I'll make him lay out the evidence so I can pick apart his source and move the goalposts
Not today

I don't think the guy is looking to resale it. His boy got it for him. He was just curious due to the nature of the place it came from and wanted some info. I'm trying to help him out. I hobby collect knives but was not familiar with it either and thought Jow Forums could help. Wasn't expecting an underage zed troll trying to do his damnedest to rustle everyone's jimmies but again it is Jow Forums so not exactly surprised either. Just figured it was more a /b/ thing

Solingen is the name of the city it was made in. Solingen is the German equivalent of maniago or seki-city. It was made by Robert (or sometimes engraved as "Robi") Klaas. The company still exists today if you're wondering.

It's really nothing special

That knife is from the 1950's.
A tard is you.

Yeah i knew the company is still around and someone did post that link earlier. I know it's not something like a war knife or nothing like that, only that it has some age to it

So this British campaign would make German companies put on their countries' names in English, worldwide? Must have been one hell of a campaign. But please go ahead and show us some of your collection of pre-ww2 blades marked 'Germany'. I am honestly interested.

What I would expect to find on a pre ww2 blade is certainly Solingen, as this was considered a quality mark. I would also expect to find 'Gmbh' behind the maker's name. This broadly means Ltd or Inc. An eventual "D.R.G.M." marking would have indicated manufacture during the 3rd Reich.

The blade is kind of rough. However, we should recall that German manufacture capabilities took a distinct downhill turn toward the end of the war and did not return immediately to old glory by the autumn of -45. I can perfectly see this item being knocked out in a hurry to sell to the occupation forces, with a hammer and chisel and old rebar and what else was availble from the rubble.

Yeah i do not recall now it the trademark symbols u are saying but it does say solingen, albeit rough to read. I wanna say it had a bit of a symbol around the klaas name but do not have the knife with be, only the pictures i took several days ago
