Недавно я хвастался своим SG14 и называл производителя "Самсонием", имея ввиду, конечно же, Samson Werke.
Да я не про шутку, которую люблю сам и ценю. Просто подумал, мож инфо есть об A. Wingen, Solingen (кстати, в теме - Jr.), его итальянских корнях и т.п. Очень уж скудные данные... Раз есть ЮНИОР - младший, то кто старший (основатель)?
Да, данные скудные. Anton Wingen also made knives under the name Othello according to http://www.archivingindustry.com/cutlers&toolmakers/cutlermarks...

Remaining stocks of finished goods and semi-finished goods were taken over in 1996 by a small Solingen cutlery manufacturer, named Manfred Schmidt.

In addition to the primary use and widespread brand " OTHELLO " in connection with a human head (at least two different versions), other trademarks were used by the Original company owners, for example: A.
