Just lost these two FDPs at an auction this morning. (Didn't try too hard tho)

I found Solingen made knifes which are very similar to David's piece, sometimes they have the etched inscription "high life" on the blade:

Some others have the inscription "Henry Kaufmann & Sons", which was a producer in Solingen, too:

So I think it is still realistic, that David's knife was also made in Solingen.
