Like you say cooool forks , the plate is one of those moody ones I think that have/were on ebay.com for a while not long back . The seller claimed they were gen late 70's early 80's but they've been reproed before at least once in the 90's or early 2000's .

Hank & Frank , uber cool US shop . Like Dordy said Brian & Brent were sponsored by them  :daumenhoch: .

I'd like to know who pressed the BIN , interesting bit of kit .
