Hello, all. :)
I picked up these two at a flea market - dirt cheap - and was hoping someone could help me identify them.

I know the bigger one on the right is some sort of bowie knife with an ornate grip while the one on the left has an exaggerated fuller, I think. It also has some kind of extension coming out of the handle at the butt, most likely another method of damage-dealing. I don't know much about knives, I'm afraid. My expertise in identification revolves around cars and handguns.

Any help would be appreciated! :)
 
Yep, those are definitely knives.

Seriously though, your guess is as good as mine. Chances are that if you bought them dirt cheap at a flea market they're some obscure knock off knife and may be unidentifiable.

Just noticed this is your first post. Welcome to the forums!
 
welcome to the forum!

Flee market finds can be a bit unpredictable. From those photos its hard to tell, but I don't recognize them as any model I've ever seen. Fish boy is likely right, the knives are most likely unidentifiable. On the upside, it sounds like they were cheap :).

Both of those are bowie style knives (large, with clip points). Beyond that, its hard to know, without any other info. Are there any markings on the blade, ricasso, pommel (butt), or sheath?
 
Welcome valenka.
First of, to each his own.
Those knives are pretty in their own right.
But when it comes to long term value,
Well, i stand correct if i say now that
It doesn't look like anything with a reputable brand.
The top bowie could be pakistani made
And that rambo 3 inspired knife at the bottom
Seems likely to be of chinese manufacture.
Just my 2 cents.
 
Thanks for the input, you guys. :)
I only bought the knives for decorative/collection purposes, along with replicas of Riddick's sabers from the film, Chronicles of Riddick. The sabers themselves were $10 (apparently retailing for $30) and in flawless condition. The two in the picture I posted were $10 each as well.

Are there any markings on the blade, ricasso, pommel (butt), or sheath?

Unfortunately not. The knife pictured on the left does have some sort of pyramid-like extension on the pommel, most likely for a blunt attack. But other than that, rather unremarkable, really.
