#47 German Nutcracker
Maker: Hartenau
Model: --
Materials: Metal
Year: Vintage
Length: 22cm/9inches
Description: As shown. Marked [Unreadable] HARTENAU GERMANY. I like the handle shape on these.

I am thinking these must be by "Helmut Hartenau" a German knife maker based in Solingen. They are also known to have made products like butchers shears and pinking shears.
