Post by 0078 »

I bought this knife on the bay, this is the best pic I have until I receive it. Anyone seen one similar?

Some were stamped EIG and some were sterile as well. Neat knives.

It's stamped foreign? Never heard of the manufacturer.

"Foreign" is not the manufacturer. It means the knife was made somewhere else. I believe this stamping was used on items imported to Britain.
The knife was made in Maniago, Italy.
