"The photos in the previous post are of an old German pruning type knife I just aquired. It surely is interesting, and quite old."

ANYBODY KNOW WHAT THESE ARE?
I have 2 of these 15" metal weapons ( I think ). They are 1" thick in the center and gradually come to a shape point at the ends. They have no makers marks or any markings on them. Your guess is as good as mine as to what they are. Thank you.

Not sure those are weapons, Bill. I can't be sure, but they seem rather impractical for any form of fighting. I'll poke around and see what I can come up with.
Edit - Okay, call me a liar then. Seems they are throwers. Cold Steel has a version of these. See here...

Odd photo...lol. If you have it in your mind the stairs go up, then they look like they are hanging vertical and look big. Once you clue in the stairs go down, then they look small and are resting on a railing. lol

Those look positively lethal!
I can hear my mother's admonition now -- "Ronnie, you'll poke your eye out!"
Ouch!

They appear to be too heavy for throwing.
