Pretty knives for sure, but also for sure they were not made by the original Robeson company. Maybe A G Russel products?

Can you show a picture of the tang markings ?
I have not seen these before so cannot comment on their origin.

Have to be Queen made. Ontario owned/owns the Robeson trademarks and Queen used them on a lot of limited run knives staring about 1998.

As stated above, made by Queen, but they're not reproductions because Robeson never produced such a knife and they can't be "MasterCraft" because they haven't got a bronze bearing on the bottoms of the blade tangs.

But, not a fantasy item either, because Ontario Knife or whoever the entity was when the knives were made, actually owned the rights to use the Robeson name.

Your opinion may vary.

They are very attractive knives particularly as a set as seen in OP.
