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.

Here's 18 boxes of metal handle pen knives from Sheffield, unwrapped one knife and the rest are wrapped in the original tissue paper from the day they left the factory!
