Picked up an Excelsior knife to go with the box I got several months ago,the end of the master blade was rough so I had to reprofile it a bit.Blades still have pretty good snap.

Cool set of knives Keith. To me they look like a set of tools for something. Maybe for sculpting. ::shrug::
And DuPont makes me think of paint. Sculpting tools for artists. ::shrug::
Anyways, they are a cool find. ::nod:: ::tu:: :D

Very nice, but that is a strange atch (H) on both the box and the tang.
