Long handled knives from around the world

This is the Pfeil Shoulder knife Markus mentioned in his comment in the precedeeng post. I had never heard of this one until now. Based on knives used in medieval times for veneering, and providing more control by resting the handle on the shoulder, therefore the user has more control as to where the blade goes.

So here are some beauties to drool over!
