Hi Roy,
I tried handle with a hot needle and it is impervious
Handles are v cold to the touch and look like they would shatter if you hit off the ground. Where the tang comes through the ends there is some metal showing in the shape of a c.
The material could be tooth but in all honesty it does not look organic.
I have attached more images and also forgot to mention there is some decoration on the blades, which I have photographed.

David I meant to ask you what sort of age would you put on this part set?.
Cheers
Ken
