Hi Jacques,
As Kronckew says, they do look like Corsican Vendetta knives.
The one in Kronck's picture was mine.
Many of these have etched blades and are 'souvenir' items.
Yours appear to be old examples and to have adaptation for threading twine through their fine points. I would expect that they are 'true' Corsican knives and were made for sailors/fishermen to be used to repair sails or nets if needed.
Very interesting and rather desirable knives.
Best Regards
Gene
