They were made by Kissing Crane. 1500 sets made in 1976. They are called Anglo Saxon whittlers.

It's the first time I've seen that Anglo Saxon Whittler pattern and I really like it. I would have told ya I would give you a buck and a half and a kiss on the cheek for one of 'em but when I looked 'em up on eBay - Jesus, Joseph and Mary!!! They're expensive!!!

Nice knives Odie. Thanks for showing them and welcome aboard.
