Hi all
I just picked up this knife and can't find a maker's mark on it.
Can anyone identify it.

Can't ID it but I love the pattern. Odd to have no maker's stamp. Any ghost of a blade etch?

That is a cool pattern and nice bone. Without any evidence other than a gut feeling, I would guess maybe Fignt'N Rooster. But I don't know if they ever made a knife without their maker's stamp or blade etch of some kind.

I would bet a quarter that this knife was made by Olbertz in Germany. Unsure of who it was made for. What is the exact name of this pattern? I am looking and coming up empty. Barehead or tear drop jack? I don't know.

I clean it up and sill can't find a maker's mark on it.
If it didn't say Germany on it I would have assumed it was a imperial knife. It feels similar to an imperial but a with a bit higher quality.

I have several similar German made knives in my collection. It is a fairly common pattern and marketed under C.F. Kayser, Hugo Koller, Altenbach, Krusius Brothers and others. It is also made with the addition of a corkscrew. With no company maker’s mark stamping there is no way to further identify it. Good carry knife for sure.
