Sadly, the rich heritage of the American Southwest has been sorely neglected. Our ancestors used special materials that can only be described as "harder than stone." Blades were highly valued works of art. I'll be first in line to pick up one of these in a Sprint Run.

I would like to show the Horseknife or peerdemes from Holland and the already shown Lierenaar from Belgium. The country Belgium used to be part of the Netherlands until 1830 so a lot of these knives are part of the heritage of both countries.

Thanks for reviving this thead, Jim!
Started it almost four years ago and pretty much forgot about it and the fascinating knives people posted (including your post now), so it is nice to read and have a look once more!
