Other two pieces from my collection. This time I'll show you two integral hunting knives from the southern Italy, XVIII-XIX century. I would like to know something more about them, and I need your help.
Bigger knife:
Overall lenght: 37cm
Blade lenght: 25cm
Width: 42mm
Thickness: 4,5mm in the thickest point
Weight: 320gr
Those are certainly nice knives. Unfortunately I know nothing about them, but I am hoping somebody who does know about them will chime in. Nice photos, too.
These are impressive. Do you have further information or can you refer me to books discussing hunting knives of this period/origin? I've been doing some research lately on hunting weapons and tools and have found some interesting variations found on Italian and Spanish examples. Any input would be helpful. .:.
