Welcome to AAPK. We’re going to need better pictures to be able to tell you much about those knives. The manufacturer’s name is typically stamped on a knife’s tang,which is the area at the base of the blade near where it is attached, or hinged in the case of a folding pocket knife, to the handle. The only one I can barely see in your pictures is the name “Imperial” on the knife with the Boy Scout shield.

Try to get brighter, clear in-focus pictures of the stampings on each knife. Taking pictures outdoors in daylight usually works best.

Big D , welcome, enjoy your journey in the knife collecting realm. Haven’t been here long myself ,the time here has been very rewarding, fun ,making new cyber friends. Even been doing a bunch of trading and buying right here on the forum. It’s been nice to have a place to hang out during this Covid thing, and viewing and drooling over the knife pics is like a knife show itself . Enjoy and be safe.
