Both knives feature hunt-themed blade etching, gilt brass hilts with hoof motif and clamshell languets, stag horn grips with 3 brass acorns on the right side, and a black leather sheath with brass furniture and an acorn frog stud.

Condition1) Fine with some minor verdigris on the brass, light spots and handling marks, and some wear on the sheath. 2) Very fine with some minor verdigris and handling marks.
