Hi David,

Heres a semi-full translation:


'Sportsman's Knife This knife is quite large.
ANTON WINGEN JR manufacturer name, and is made in Solingen, Germany. This manufacturer, and now you know better OTHELLO (Othello) is known by the name says.

Large and small blades, saws, Korukusukuryuu, Rezabora, serrated, Batendaburedo, in front of the tractor is attached extract of shotgun pellets.
Sutagguhandoru, and bolster people around the individual is indeed part of "Made in Germany" are more like well-built and built, and heavy atmosphere.'



Funnily enough, I found the page while looking to ID another folder made by OTHELLO.
It does seem to indicate that this exact 'model' was made back to the early part of the century. If the steel wasn't stainless I'd have placed it to first quarter straight away.

Regards
Gene
