They were made by Chris Burkholder a Amishman not to far from me he makes or made quite a few knives and hawks from the cutoffs of buggy springs, he also builds some very nice flintlock rifles
 
A friend from Ohio sent me some knives a while back. He told me they were forged by an Amishman from buggy springs. Not only do they look similar, they share the same mark. I can see it clearly on the bottom blade in your photo. Mine still have a bit of paint on them though ;-)

Rich what is the hide behind those classic looking blades? Antelope? Great post and yes that fellow at the anvil knows the business end of a hammer! You've got some good tools there.
