KNIFE MAKING INFLUENCES OF MINE

[kansas stik man]

here are a couple of knifes that mean alot to me both home made and very useable.  
The first one is a knife that my grandfather made. not sure what year or how but i know he made it.  i like the blade shape and the handle is very compfy.



The second one is a knife made by a good friend of mine by the name of dave hadl the owner of circle H blacksmithing he makes all kinds of stuff in his forge from candle holders to great knives like this.  he has be the one looking over my knife building adventure and given me great advise.

Any Iranian heritage in your grandfather?  That knife seems to have a certain Persian flare to it.  Very nice!
