Identify German made pocketknife

[jamesfelder]

Looking for help in identifying the German made pocketknife in the attached files/photos.

Thank you.

The maker appears to me to be Gbr. Grafrath, a long established Solingen maker and now a subsidiary of Hubertus. Others may have better eyes than me and could give more detail.

I'm far from being an expert James, but your knife has a Hubertus or Weidmannsheil utility/camp knife look to me! I have a very similar looking knife coming soon in the mail, and it has a stamp that says "Indian" , so perhaps that's another possibility. I would also like to you to AAPK!

Hello James & to the AAPK!

I'm no expert at all, just a Greenhorn collector who has learned a few things but still has a lot to learn. Not sure if your a knifer or not so I may be telling you things you already know.

Looks to me like a typ of pocket knife for hunters. I have seen those types of hooks on hunting knives before, although I don't know what they are used for.

The handles look like stag to me. Stag is "normally" not used on cheaper quality knives. Meaning, it was probably from a good brand.

Rostfrei = Rust free or rustproof or another word for Stainless steel.

To my eyes the stamp looks like Gräfrath or maybe Gbr. Gräfrath (over) Solingen.
"Gbr." stands for Gebrüder which means Brothers.

"Gräfrath ist der kleinste der fünf Solinger Stadtbezirke." = Gräfrath is the smallest of five boroughs of Solingen. Solingen, Germany is known worldwide for it's many makers of fine cutlery.

IMO that's a great find. Hope I could be of some help.

Maybe some of the other members here can add something else. Like what the different blades/hook are used for. That would be very helpful.
