THREE VERY NICE EXAMPLES AND ALL DIFFERENT A BONUS

THE FIRST ONE HAS AN UNUSUAL BLADE TIP IT KIND OF REMINDS ME OF A JAPANESE BLADE THE OTHER TWO BLADES ARE OF A MORE NORMAL FORM. VERY GOOD AGE AND WORKMANSHIP ON ALL THREE. THE INLAY OF SHELL IS INTERESTING AND SHOULD HELP THOSE WITH EXPERTESE IN THIS FIELD IDENTIFY THEM FOR YOU. I WOULD LIKE TO SEE SOME CLOSEUPS OF THE SHELL INLAYED AREAS AND THE CREATURE NEAR THE TIP OF THE SHORTER KNIFE IN YOUR PICTURE OF TWO TOGETHER. CONGRADULATIONS VERY NICE FINDS.
