Top knife is a PINE KNOT - JW PRICE. Stamp used on some knives made for Belknap Hardware, pre-WWII era.

Second one I have no idea.

It's actually pretty rare to see the Pine Knot, you see so many fakes of that stamp.

I have been dating and pricing a lot of knives as many of you well know, and when I find one that stumps me a Iset it aside and I guess I have found that pile. Here is another that is stumping me. I have seen many Case tang stamp charts and this one is not on them, I have heard tale of arched tang stamps but have not seen them.
