Duisy Steel knife

[keithw]

I just bought this one and haven't received it yet. It's marked Duisy Steel (Solingen), and I've never heard of it. It looks like a pretty well made knife. I've been able to find a couple doing internet searches, but they are both shadow pens, sort of like E. Bruckmann knives. I've seen a few straight razors too. I'd really appreciate it if anyone has some info to share.

Thanks!
Keith

Looks unused and pretty handles.

Good looking knife, no information though

From Anthony Carter's "German Knife and Sword Makers", I believe it is likely C. Duisberg. Founded in 1881. Head office was in Vienna, Austria. Manufacturing was in Solingen. Carter does not give a lot of information. The business was still operating in 2002. Their trademark was "a twin-tailed rampant lion on each side of vertical sword, pommel upward". The mark on your knife is a somewhat simplified version of the mark shown in Carter's book. Good looking knife, nice stag.
