Thank you Ken and Ahorsa.
Sorry Fernando, I didn't want to start a discussion on prices, but the price did indicate that one or the other of these, or both, were very desirable knives. I was trying to find out what made them so. I think I can work it out thanks to Ken and Ahorsa. Best wishes Richard |

What is the second knife? Post 1900? Handle material? Wire wrap missing on handle. Pommel in shape of a crown. I can't make out what is depicted in the three panels showing on the eight-sided pommel. Hunters horn on guard? Do I see a double headed eagle in the blade etching? Austrian or Russian, I can't tell? The claws do not seem to be holding any objects.
