What does "BP" stand for on INOX tang stamp
So, picked up this little 7"
Pretty decent shape works well.
Does anyone know what the BP in the tang stamp "BP" over "Inox"? Manufacturer? Age? I figure its from the 1980's how close Thanks

Razor Sharp posted about this stamp some months back on a similar knife:

No exact confirmation there either though. Somebody here has to know. Odds are pretty even the 'B' is Beltrame, but 'P'...??
Peace.

For the purpose of providing an answer for this thread.
BP inox tang stamp stands for Beltrame Payot, which is a company that operated in the early 1980's. Founded by Franco's brother Renzo Beltrame with a French dealer named Payot selling their knives on the French market. This company closed near the end of the 1980's.
I would like to thank a friend and fellow knife collector Slavko Rajak for this information.
