This is a German transverse shuttle machine. On the last picture you can see the spindle sticking out of the right side of the bobbin winder. A sharpening stone is placed on this spindle.The sharpening stone spindle is an usually indication of German manufacture.
I looked up Phoenix in the Needlebar Needle Book. It shows two manufacturers. National (an American company) and Baer & Rempel (a German company).
Hope this helps,
Cathy
