Found this little pocket knife at the bottom of a box at the flea market. Paid next to nothing for it, so it was a no brainer to bring it home. 

Now the question is, is it a real deal?

 

One side says: Gefr. Husar * L 495828

The other side says: Brest / Frankfurt 1944

Tang of the main blade is marked:  ?ARANTIL (?) , STAHL , IMPORT
