I have had both, but prefer the old ones. Nice blade!
Here is the tang stamp from New Bedford.
Thanks for sharing that picture! I came across some posts that suggested these were made in Germany and imported or finished in the US. Given the metalworking tradition in New England at the time, I had a strong hunch that these were more likely American made.

The more I use it, the more I like it.
