Goins say 1850-60 but that is inconsistent with the Germany stamp. He says it was a brand name of a NYC based import company. No information on the actual maker. Blades guide suggests circa 1900 which seems more plausible. That's all I have. s-k

I can't see it real well but I believe it is a Cross of St. Andrews.
