the knife has the high button boots and the tang stamp reads..( Germania; Cutlery Works; Germany).. Goin's book dates the knife stamp 1896-1917
by having the buttons on the shoes I would date the knife in the late 1800's to the early 1900's.. the knife is in great condition giving the age and
and the process it was made by well over 100 years ago...Goin's didn't have very much information on this cutlery company
It would be interesting to see if anyone can show other knives and or add more information about the company
