I love #2! To my untrained eye, it looks like it has the most age.

You're actually right Steve. According to Battara it could be from the late 30s to 40s, with the blade earlier than the mounts. The others he dated later than the 40s. And it has the nicest blade - swirling lamination pattern present.
