Hello,
Anyone have an idea how old this knife is. Had it maybe 10 years and the condition hasn't changed. I don't clean relics at all. It was in a box of military items I purchased. The other stuff (medals, etc.)were post war and the individual was stationed in Germany. It is tightly sprung and is very fast.
Thanks
Bruce

Thanks Bill.
Re: Hubertus Springer: How old?
Bill is correct as the etch appears grey. If there is a "W" in front of Germany it was made 1984 - 1988. If no "W" then 1988 or later.
