"12 degrees here in downtown Saint Thomas, PA this morning. The wind has died down, so it is no longer a brutal day."

Information
I was wondering if someone could tell me about Rolf W Buchel pocket knives. I've never heard of them. Are they supposed to be good quality? I welcome any information.

Short and sweet, and not very well written.
From what I have seen, his company is not very well known. It was started in the mid 1940s I think and was still going around 2000. Solingen Germany. Decent quality but nothing exceptional. I think the 'W' was for Walter.
They started out making folders, but have also made some straight razors. The only makers mark I have seen is a small group of 3 sheep surrounded by an oval. This mark was on the blades, and also on the handle of the razor. On the folders, I have only seen bone scales.
