chilean knives (?)

Thanks for the info, it is much appreciated. The corvo has some square markings on the blade. I've seen some with similar circular markings as well but not sure of the significance.

Do the other knives seem period correct? They were part of the same collection but unfortunately have no additional information on their origin. Any thoughts as to their authenticity?

Thanks again for your time and input.

Nice Chilean corvo just finished online. Pictures are from the vendor's listing. This one is probably mid-20th C. or a little earlier.
