Your knife is a 1930s Cattaraugus hunting knife made for them by Kinfolks who made all the commercial fixed blades for Cattaraugus from 1926-1941. You will find the same knife with a Kinfolks or a Case stamp, and there are a few with retailer's marks, all made by Kinfolks. The Catt version is the only one I have seen with the colorful celluloid ring in the middle of the leather handle.

Hi Rich, your second knife is a German made hunting knife made for the American market probably 1960s-1970s. These are good user knives but don't have a big collector following.
