I have found a few pitons that are marked Albert Lutz AG Teufen. I am not sure who Albert Lutz was or even if the word Lutz is name or a location. Lutz is a town in Austria so I figured that since Stubai in Austria made one of the pitons then Lutz as a location in Austria maybe makes sense. But Teufen is a town in Switzerland. Then later I found another piton with the Albert Lutz name on it but it is made by Salewa. Salewa products were made in West Germany. So overall I am still searching for information about Albert Lutz.
