Idea? That is pretty much the logo, verbatim! :o
Without a proper date and source causality is not readily established. I'm not sure the top part isn't modern to begin with.

Are you really sure it is not a thing?  Was browsing "old pictures from Las Vegas" on a news channel and this popped up.  Maybe that is where the designer got his idea.


 

I'd say that is simply part of a web based advertisement for Keysight :)

That should be so obvious it starts feeling like intentional misrepresentation.   :scared:

Anyone remember Lucent's logo? The coffee cup stain?

Actually, the Agilent and Lucent logos were made by the same PR firm (Landor).  Not sure what they charged Agilent for the logo, but it seems they might have re-used a few elements from their Lucent design .....  :)

a word that is sometimes shortened by removing the 'sultant' bit to reveal an inner truth 
You get another truth by swapping the 'u & l in that 'sultant', frequently applicable to business and marketing consluting, but I have seen it applicable in software and even design types.

the shape is a secret sauce so people can;t just copy and past some shape or make it with some curve drawing program. it is easy to spot fakes. like the FTIKE mulitmeters

Yes, but this is a double-edged sword.
If you make a logo difficult to copy in subtle ways, but easy to approximate (with most people probably not noticing), then you open the possibility of having counterfeits with a purposedly inexact logo (but looking close enough for the unaware), then reaping some of the benefits of counterfeiting without being an infringement. This is a very common practise.

Try taking FFT from the Keysight logo.
Then use an AWG to synthesize a copy.  ::)
