I don't know if he was an engraver too. I did find a Sid Bell who was a silversmith up in Alaska in my search but this friend of mine says he was from Lubbock, TX. I haven't seen these two knives she has but on my next visit, I'll check them out.
I've looked through all the photos at least 5-6 times. Got my choice narrowed down to 3 fine looking photos but HHH Knives gets my vote. The photo just keeps me mesmerized!
Two folders by Frank Niro. Again, camera was a Canon PowerShot A3100IS set on auto.

My gf has about 4 frog & 3 turtle ceramic figures around her pond and another 3 'real' frogs and 1 'real'

Just an update... I bought 4 more of these type of knives made in India. While not that expensive, I was 'hooked' on the carvings.
Very few sellers knew what type of wood was used but my best guess after searching all the descriptions I could find is Sheesham (Indian Rosewood) and Teak.
