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.

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.
