Wilhelm Weltersbach Stahlwarenfabrik was founded in 1882 and registered in Solingen on 2 August 1910, specialising in “all types of good-quality hunting knives”. It registered its double-spouted village pump trademark in 1926. In 1938–39 it made “Weidmannsheil” folding lock-knives for huntsmen, and garden, pruning, pocket and folding butcher knives.
