I would appreciate any help. Trying to identify who made the handles. It's a set of 6 butter knives in a case. Blades are marked rostfri jernbolaget eskilstuna.

Hi,
I think the handles are made of silver (Dutch sward mark for minimum fineness .833).
Take a look here.

The other mark is probably Swedish maker`s mark but cannot identify it.

Hi, Dutch maker's mark.

The Dutch sword mark normally seen in combination with Dutch maker's mark. For more information about Dutch (hall)marks, including the Dutch sword mark see:
