I know it stands for a German patent of something but just wondered if it was on every model .DuncDirect from Mr. Elsener:"DE-GM / 9305297 = It's the term of our German registered design of the locking mechanism:DE = Deutschland / GermanyGM = Gebrauchsmuster / registered design93005297 = numberIf you have any further questions please do not hesitate to contact me.Yours sincerelyVICTORINOXExecutive Master of Business ExcellenceRobert Elsener" It is not on every knife however. I have seen Foresters, Rucksacks, etc. with and withouy the designation, Tim.
