Here is a G.Eberhardt, Wiesbaden. - No. 18
A nice old budding/grafting knife. The blade is beveled on mark side only.
It has a very strong spring. The covers may be celluloid but I am not sure on this old guy.
Can't find much about Eberhardt.
Thanks for looking.

Thank you, Bill.
Thanks for looking into the name.
Still a puzzle.

Joe I think they were (still are) a cutlery retailer. Not sure if they ever actually manufactured as I can't seem to find any history on them, even though they've been around for quite some time. Probably too small and local.

Thank you Eric, that makes sense.
I wonder if they retailed German stamps only or if they might retail other European cutlers as well.
These pins make me think it's an older knife.
