I really like your FAMA, but can't make out the manufacturer. Is it F.W. Backhaus? Nice French point. (I think)

I'm jellous my family likes to throw out what came before them. My great grand pop had nine daughters and eight sons and used a straight, we don't know what he used just that he used a straight. Needless to say we do nto have the blade.
