All these knives were found in either a market or a second hand shop with prices ranging from $2.00 to $18.00.
A French butcher knife.
Two very similar English butcher knives. The handles are pinned and not riveted which is period correct.
This blade probably French, was a lot larger than show here, almost twice the size. I reshaped this blade and made and fitted the handle..
This one is a 20th century knife and not much good as is. The blade is very worn, and the handle is riveted. But the steel is good, and I was thinking of making a jack knife out of it.
This jack knife has had new bone slab handles fitted.
English butcher knife with a pinned handle.
This is a great little knife which I presently use as a legging knife.

You're right; good knives can be had very cheaply.
