Hi Nando,
Well, I usually don't keep them long as others like them a lot, and I prefer ethnic stuff.
You've got a rather nice 'pruning knife' there!
Unusual for sure and very collectable! Is there a saw blade too?
That particular one was as you say made in Germany for export (and sale by foreign retailers) Do you want to see a near identical one (in fact identical but with a saw) from a book I have?
Regards
Gene
