I didn't know that HJ knives were counted as cutlery .
And they are also unlikely to be counted as gold and silverware.
The box originally contained very high-quality cutlery by the well-known Wellner company in Aue, which was sold by the jeweller and goldsmith Sonntag in Leipzig. It came with a guarantee of 20 years (where can you still get something like that today?!) for its durability.

Edit: Ah, I've just read your clarified question.
In my opinion, there is nothing to suggest that the box is not original from around 1935, especially as the stamp on the guarantee certificate and the jeweller's label match. I think I can recognise the year 1935 on the Wellner guarantee certificate.

The consequence of this is that the HJ logo on the lid cannot be regarded as contemporary.

So none of this has anything to do with HJ. A business-boosting idea, that's what I'd call it.

Wonderful man Jack, thank you

Thank you, I have clarified the answer a little.
Because there was cutlery in it (perhaps a fish knife or something like that), an HJ logo on the lid is nonsensical and probably came there not too long ago. Jewellers were unlikely to have sold HJ knives. The contents here were considerably more expensive.
