Nice examples P996. If I'm not mistaken, C Jul Herbertz also made a similar version of the top knife, and they came from Germany originally and now China. I was recently "bombed" a beat-up copy of the slant bolster bottom knife to restore, but it shows no markings whatsoever so it won't help. If Bill and F1 say Maniago and/or Italy, I'd take that to the bank.
