In 1845 Carl Eppenstein founded C. Eppenstein Söhne, Messerfabrik. It registered with the Solingen Chamber of Commerce on 31 October 1902, along with its winged-horns trademark. Carl’s sons Hugo and Richard ran the company from 1914 to 1930, concentrating on cutlery and kitchen, butchers’ and bread knives.
