I used to have the top one in green; it was my mother's given to her by my grandfather in the mid 1930ies...
Unfortunately it got stolen when I was ridding on motorbike to the Adriatic sea 1985....I would have easily traded one of my yataghans to get it back but fortunately I found one in what was once the good Ol'U S of A and its on its way to me....

Hi GP,
Thanks for your interest and the website link. I did look into the horse head Puukko sometime ago and determined it was possibly from the 30's, makes sense re your mother's. Thanks again .
My Regards,
Norman.
