The knives in the pictures below were given to me by a good friend in America who has since died. As you can imagine, they have a pretty high sentimental value for me. I have no interest in what financial value they might have which, in any case is probably zero, that's irrelevant.
The large one is a case, no surprise there. Tang stamp is:
Case XX
USA
. . . . . . (6 dots)
What I would like to know is, who made the small one and approximately when. I know it's more than ten years old but, apart from what's stamped on the tang, I know nothing more about it. I thought maybe one of you smart fellows might know.
It doesn't show too well in the pic but the scales appear to be some sort of mother-of-pearl, quite probably artificial.
On the tang is:
U.S.A
