A possibility, but I don't think so. The metal sheath with the bayonet type
compression retention on both, plus the second one having no sawteeth,
I really expect they were intented for the military. A somewhat similar
one to the sawtooth blade is shown on the Swedish Military knives website,
but not with this sheath or by this maker. It is described as a pilot's
survival knife. Here's the link to the Swedish military knives website.
