Well, you can buy knives like this in Germany in tourist shops but the steel is ok.

I used to have a bunch of Buck Creek, Kissing Cranes, Fighting Roosters, and more of those old Solingen knives-hard to beat, for sure. My dad carried a Solingen German Boker every day of his life since way back before I was born. I can't ever remember him without it.

Mechslasher:
i've seen the maker's stamp before but can't remember the name of the maker.  the metal is probably 1090 or 1095 carbon steel.  it would make a first rate belt knife using a piece of antler.

medicinewheel:
That's actually a Bavarian, probably Austrian, too, breakfast knife. Very traditional. My Grandpa used to have one, too.
The blade is made in Solingen, half hour north of Cologne, they have many knife factories there, a worldwide business.
That foot is of a roe buck.
