P.S. If anybody can i.d the maker of the Norwegian style knife I would be grateful.
could the name be Morakniv Garberg ? or maybe here is a name:

I used to have the top one in green; it was my mother's given to her by my grandfather in the mid 1930ies...
Unfortunately it got stolen when I was ridding on motorbike to the Adriatic sea 1985....I would have easily traded one of my yataghans to get it back but fortunately I found one in what was once the good Ol'U S of A and its on its way to me....
