What about age?
You have a great collection, something for me to aspire toward.

Hello!
The bigger has 13 in and the smaller has 8.5 in. In Spain this type of knives are easy to find and not very expensive, 100 euros to up, the age are from end of XIX century.
I know a book, with more information about Albacete cutlery, " INTRODUCCION AL ESTUDIO DE LA CUCHILLERIA ARTISTICA DE ALBACETE".
Best regards
