Greetings,
I inherited some carving tools whose manufacturer I can't identify.
They're probably just 1980-vintage Buck, but I can't find a match for
the logo.

Asciified, it looks something like this:

The tools have octagonal pale wood handles. They look like maple. The
logo and part number are stamped in red. The blades are stamped with the
logo and "Germany."

Anybody recognize the brand? I've been googling manufacturers, but
haven't found a match yet.

Looks like this:

Sure does...
After seeing the logo, anyway... I would NOT have visualized 2 stick
figures out of the ASCII..

You have to use a fixed space font to see those ascii things, proportional
fonts make a royal mess of them. I have always been pretty good with my
visualization skills, so that may help.

Probably doesn't matter as the OP hasn't bothered responding.
