I have came across the stag multi blade knife that is only marked "KOSSMAN B BADEN" Goins has the listing but no info. If anyone can share some knowledge on this one it would be greatly appreciated. The bolsters are nickel silver, however the pins are steel.
Thanks in advance ::tu::

I believe it is a German made knife, and I think the Maker is Kassman and Baden is a city in Germany but I don't know what the extra B is for. Quite a nice looking knife.

Nice knife!

“Baden” is a German (verb) for “bathe” or “swim”.
I wonder if the “B.” on your knife is also an abbreviation for “Baden”.
Baden-Baden is a spa town located in south-western Germany.
Kassman may have been the name of a local cutlery shop or cutlery manufacturer located in Baden-Baden.
