Vintage Collectible Knives

These knives are from a local estate and were obtained in the 70's and 80's by the owner. They have been in storage for many years. Most of these high-quality knives were made in Japan and appear to have never been sharpened. The knives are very sharp, like surgical steel, and require extreme care when handling them. Be sure your state allows you to own them before you bid.
