Hey all!
Looking to find info on these knives I got from my grandpa. I know the Swedish one is a barrel knife and the German one is a gravity knife, but couldn’t find much more info on them. Couldn’t find any info on the multi tool. Only writing I see is the ussr on the handle. Thanks for any info. I’m having fun researching all these knives that were left to me.

I don't have much for you, but I do wonder whether the one marked "USSR" was made for export. All of the Russian knives from the Soviet era that I have seen are marked solely in Cyrillic, not western letters. But I don't have a lot of experience, so perhaps someone else can shed more light on it.

I have USSR multi tool/camp knife, it looks like yours, but red solid scales. The scales cracked when pressure was put on them and overall, the quality is not great.
