These are two lockbacks by @Ducasse Guillaume. The one on the left is the Capricorne and the one on the right is the Oryx.

Thanks for posting those Guillaume's. They're good looking knives. Always nice to see knives produced by a BF inmate

I am a big fan of lockbacks. Here are a few of mine, all in stainless.

GECs in 440C (99s in chestnut, bone, and elk and a 42 in micarta):



Fontenille-Patauds in 14C28N (buffalo horn, maple burl, and phosphorescent resin):



Moki in VG10 (bone):



And my favorite, a Camillus/Santa Fe Stoneworks in mother-of-pearl, lapis, silver and nickel silver. I am not sure of the steel in this one, but it is definitely stainless. My father bought this for me when traveling through Santa Fe in the early '90s. I carried it for decades, until I realized Dad wasn't getting any younger and I should keep it safe and sound. The search for a replacement is actually what led me here.
