Deffo not Redlijne nor Tange, I'd have a guess at Akisu or just plain old generic steel not cro-mo forks.  Welding and end caps are the first sign, and if Tange dropouts would not have washer tabs on them and Redline didn't do round holes, they were a solid dropout or early ones had a Patterson style cut out  :daumenhoch:.  Have a look for a marking just above the crown race, might say something line 22.2 and Hi-Ten  ;).

no markings on them, but they are very heavy, and the welds are all over the place. nothing special.

cheers lads
