I grabbed this from another forum...

"El Lobo wrote...

Levine's #4 suggests it's most likely...
B. Svoboda
Liberty Organization ( :confused: ) (Importer?)
Montrose, California
c1950 until at least 1997...maybe still going. It was apparently a wholesale brand, not particularly collectible....according to Mr. Levine. This one is obviously from Germany.
Best I've got.

From this and what I am seeing in various articles and sales, I would guess 60's to early or mid 70's. Obviously not stainless (rostfrei) so it is a decent steel.
