Blade tang reads Hoffritz NY, Made in Germany, the blade and the pruner have lots of snap. The blade has been abused. The blade is dull. The pruners are darn near razor sharp. The wood handles need to be oiled and there is a lot of rust on the liners, but she is a beauty. I love multi tools and in particular gardening/hunting multi tools with pruners. I wish I was a better photographer to show the functional beauty of this tool.
