Neat old Bavarian knife.

Found the following maker information on British Blades.

DES is for 

David Everts Stahlwahrenfabrik Solingen. 
concerning the lance and banner trademark, according to Anthony Carter "The Sword and Knife Makers of Germany 1850 - 2000" this trademark first belonged to 

Daniel Küllenberg & Söhne (sons), 

which was than acquired by 

David Everts. 
Since David Everts had no successors, it was thas sold to 

Ludwig Groten 

who used also the lance and banner trademark. 
In the mid 1980 David Everts was than reformed to a limited company.
