The Süddeutsche, Messerfabrik, company began in Gefrees, Bayern sometime around 1938/39. It is assumed that the "Bayerische Messerfabrik Johann Leupold" and "Johanniswerk Stahlwarenfabrik" companies mergedas the Deutsches Reichs-Adressbuch does not include either company in 1939 and yet Süddeutsche Messerfabrik assumes Leupold's phone number. Come the Third Reich era, early SA daggers were being manufactured-Fisher estimates 4,000. A September 30, 1939, Der Messerschmied advertisement listed the company's commercial products as: cutlery, and kitchen, meat and pocket knives.
