Hi Charlie,
Your knives are outstanding! Are those two 13 and 11" or 11 and 9"? The checkered pattern on the smaller knife is really nice. It's dagger blade is impressive and I noticed the slightly longer bayo swedge way cool. They're both expertly done. I thought having two would be enough, but five that is amazing. I like top bolsters design. There something about it that just makes it look so much nicer than the more modern version of this knife. I'd love to see the other three.

I just love these old Maltese wood handled knives. I like them much better than the old Frosolones.

Charley, absolutely stunning knives - wonderful style and craftsmanship. Really no need to say anything about them - just lay them out on the table and they speak for themselves -- Congrats !!
