you're correct; based upon your comment, I found an exact similar one sold half a year ago, clicking on the picture you can see 18 other ones looking like mine ...
although mine is in a lesser condition

and very interesting: https://ru.pinterest.com/search/pins...knife&rs=typed

much obliged for your swift reply and excellent eye !

strange: I couldn't find anything at all on kampa knives in the forum; maybe interesting to start a thread if a member has more info and even some in his collection...?

I found 3 websites containg a little info / note: if it violates forum rule, please delete them:
