Info needed

Post by Swengen »

I'm not certain whether this fixed blade is a recently made German knife, or vintage. The small pearl handle knife with nail clippers is also something new to me. It was really tough trying to get some macro shots of the tang stamp and my eyes couldn't make it out with a magnifying glass. Any info would be greatly appreciated. Sorry for the bad pics.

I have an identical knife to the nail clipper.It is stamped W&G Vogel Vohwinkel and on the rear is a graphic with a hand holding a pair of nippers vertically.Yours is only the second one I've ever seen.

Thanks guys for the info! I didn't think this was an original German Youth knife. Just had to make sure.
