The Lorenzo Bianda has no country of origin on it. Perhaps HE is an Italian maker? Still, with the letters M and C? Gotta start digging

Scales are tortoise, I think it had a blade guard somewhat like the "Curley's" at one time. Lost the link that showed it was made around 1800, but I don't know if that's correct or not. Only two of the blades are even close to usable but it's different. Haven't tried honing it. Probably never will.
Only marking on it anywhere is simply the number 1. All pieces are marked the same.

Ah! Those are the filed-edge ones, rather than the huge ones that go across the back.
Big fan of those, too. :D
