Thanks for the replies guys, like scout says many blades were made in this style thanks to google images i have seen a few almost identical, i dont have my hands on them to look for makers marks the guy selling them runs a gun club and was given a job lot of of knifes by some old chap they dont know a deal about them but would like to move them on, as for the blood groove i thought if it was made for combat most single edged blades had them, i suppose some makers did and some did not, ive been offered both for £40, not a huge amount so maybe worth a punt, the bottom one if correct would be worth that as a relic if nothing else once those awful grips are removed.
