These are very nice...some what lacking in condition but given the rarity of the knives, hilt material and the design of the sheath, I think they could be late 18th century.
The hilts are shell, however, they are not tridacna. Tridacna are giant clam shells, these clearly have the spiralling rings of a conch shell. Gavin |
