The 4 left bottom knives plus the top 2 perched on the resine moose are from a local custom knife maker with German roots. I bought them a year after he passed away. I was attending a yard sale when his widow told me about the knives. After following her inside the house, I was amazed at what I saw. One of the moose knives has his name etched on the blade...1 of 2 that was sent to one of his German friends to finish as they were left unfinished when he passed away. His name was Herman Duerrshmidt.
