[stovepipe]

Hi Folks,

I was directed over here from an other forum. Was told you guys may be able to help me identify a couple of old knives that have been passed down through my family. I think they are from the mid to late 1800's. Thanks for your time!

The Samuel Robinson looks like a pruning knife pattern. Samuel Robinson was in business from about 1860-1876.

The Manhattan Cutlery looks like a horseman's knife (maybe someone will correct me on this). Manhattan Cutlery was imported by H Boker & Co ca. 1861-1916.
