These two are going to Greece. They're both type 11's, with amboyna handles. The steel as usual, is CPM154 and hollow ground.
Notice the logo and steel type on the face side of the blade, and the serial number on the obverse side. This number says it's a type 11, and second issued in the series.
The handles are one piece, in that the tang has been milled away just below the pin holes. This shows the strong backbone of the blade, but the user has the warmth of wood under his fingers. It also dramatically lowers the overall weight of the knife, and places the balance forward.
Not shown in this picture, both knives also have leather sheaths in a semi pouch style.
