You gotta at least show the blades, that's where you'll see the maker stamp.....right at the base of the main blade.

I looked there and there weren't any marking, nor on any of the other blades or the rust has eaten away any marks.

It'd be the first knife (even China made) I've seen without a stamp!!!

Looks like a nice old knife. Scott is right, we would need to see photos with the blades open. Looks like real tortoise shell handles and I would guess German made? The top shot is very intriguing, I am very interested to see the blades.

I have several German(?)made multiblade knives that do not have a tang stamp or a blade stamp and they are of very good quality. One is a four blade senator with sunk joints and very intricate file work on the back springs and another is a horn handled multiblade with a file worked manicure blade on the spine which looks for all the world like an Adolph Kastor knife.
Not sure of the reasons why they weren't stamped.
