Ackermannchen

Post by gravknife »

Hello all at TB

Was browsing through ebay looking at knives and came across this ...what I perceived to be an Ackermannchen from the 60s .

The one I have has a square button and safety ,this has the round normal types .
Is it an Ackermannchen or something else?
It has the usual blade release and overall shape like mine .

Thanks as usual Bill.
Hadn't seen them like this before .I really like this shape and design ,something a bit different than the typical switchblades .
