Two folders, probably (U.S.?) military issue, I picked up many years ago. Looks like 1950's gear or even earlier. Both knives have been heavily used by previous owner(s).

Both British army issue, the top one is a 1904-1938 engineers knife with a Marlin spike also often referred to as a contract knife...the other is a standard issue two part army knife from just after the Second World War when they started putting a bottle opener on the can opener. A close up of the can opener would reveal the maker but it’s almost certainly GI American kit.
