Knives from my grandfathers collection

[Ncsporter86]

So far this site has given me a lot of insight on what I have! I have lurked here a while and finally decided to join. I posted pictures of these in the general discussion and learned a lot. Someone commented and recommended that I post them in the case forum, seems you case guys like to stick around these parts!!

User “Gunsil” (I believe his name is Gene, and from his posts he has a gorgeous collection! And is very knowledgeable) has given me a lot of info on these.. I figured I would post these here as well.

The long story short is my grandfather purchased these as a kid and put them up and never used them. The two pictured are untouched and not sharpened!

Any info on them is appreciated as I am not up to date on knives the way I am on double guns!!
Thanks again!

Thank you, from what i gather they seem to be quite rare, i am working on getting some more info on that for my own curiosity.

Odd to purchase them and not use them, especially for a boy ?Beauties though.

There were many that were used, it seems that even at a young age in the 30's he knew which ones he wanted to admire vs use. His collection was well into the hundreds that he got over the years.. These are a couple that seem to be the most rare from what i am told
