Me too….when I won it, I THOUGHT it was a typo for Victorinox, but as it turns out…..it's not. It's a Virginia Inox metal handle knife. The country of manufacturing is unknown. All the info I can accumulate is displayed in the knice photos below.
The History of the Colonial Knife Company, by Robert Paolantonio
I have the same one, it came in a sheath. Mine is stamped on blade, Inox germany
I have this exact knife, except mine is stamped ROSTFREI UNITED on one side of the blade and UC-6 on the other side. Why would there be so many different versions of the same knife? Mine also came in a small leather sheath.
It's a nice little pocket tool, but can anyone tell me approximately when it was made?
Hard to say…..anywhere from the 50’s to to today….Unlike WR Case, Buck, GEC, who’s knives are stamped with a code to translate
into the year of productiion , most other don’t and leave us hanging as to guess when.
