    My mother in law gave me a few old knives that her husband had before he passed last month. I only know that he had them before they were married in 1956. Any one have any thoughts? the dual blade is kind of light and almost flimsy while the curved on is very heavy.

      My guess is both daggers are tourist souvenirs from someones trip to the middle east in the 1950 to 1970's

      The double bladed one is a Katar. Probably from India or Pakistan.
