Tillmann Carl & Söhne (LUX): A Rare Manufacturer from Solingen

The Tillmann Carl & Söhne (LUX), Stahlwarenfabrik, was founded in Solingen. The exact founding year is unknown. The company specialized in steel goods production and expanded during the Nazi era to edged weapons, particularly SA service daggers. In 1935, it received the RZM code M7/61, assigned for the production of political daggers. The location in Solingen underscores the region's tradition as a center for blade production in Germany.

The firm produced approximately 2,000 SA service daggers (Sturmabteilung), rated with a rarity of 4/5 as highly rare. These daggers bear the motto "Alles für Deutschland" and typically feature nickel-silver fittings. Other products include general steel goods.

The logo of Tillmann Carl & Söhne (LUX) features the arched text "CARL TILLMANNS SÖHNE" at the top, "LUX" in the middle with a running dog or fox above it, and "SOLINGEN" at the bottom. The logo is in dark gray on a transparent background, symbolizing dynamics and tradition.

Today, the products of Tillmann Carl & Söhne (LUX) are coveted collectibles that embody the historical development of the Solingen manufacturer history in the edged weapons industry.
