Knife (Piha Kaetta)
The "Knife (Piha Kaetta)" by an unknown artist is a curved knife with a silver-gray metal blade that appears weathered and worn. The blade is long and narrow, tapering to a point at the tip. It has a slight curve along its length. The handle is made of a darker metal and features an ornate design. It is shaped like a branch or a root with protrusions and indentations. A gold-colored metal piece connects the handle to the blade, with an ornate pattern on it. The background of the image is plain and light gray.
