The blades are etched with advertising for Prairie Implement Company, Stuttgart, Arkansas, and the set is housed in its original blue cardboard box. The lot further contains a Big Fisherman floating fish knife with a light wood handle and a matching wood sheath; the stainless steel blade features a serrated top edge and an integrated bottle opener. Supplemental items include a circular metal retractable tool reel, a small red Mum brand blade box, and a miniature glass condiment-style bottle with a red cap. A plastic soda bottle is present in the images for scale.
