case imported knives from germany from 1923?- 1940.
later knives were imported from germany in 1979. jim parker had some made in 1989. what does the tang say? inox?
if so then it is a 1979 i believe. jim parker bought them from case(a failed marketing test) and had case etch "case german import" on the blade to show they were case branded.

You are sharp ~ The tang stamp does say inox ~ thanks for answering my question.
