Anthony Bourdain, New York, 2001

Un hombre va afilando un cuchillo mientras camina por el barrio del Raval, Barcelona:

Para ti fue una palabra, para mí fue un cuchillo que se incrustaba lentamente en lo profundo de mi ser.

[Y aunque lo intentes, ya nada será lo mismo]

Andrea

I've mentioned on Zorro Discord that non-noble Spaniards preferred navaja knives.

Here is the finale of 'Bodas de sangre' (Bloody Wedding) by Carlos Saura, where flamenco dancers (one of them is the famous Antonio Gades) symbolically depict a fight with such knives.

And there was also el cuchillo and other types of long knives...

A flesh-eating knife

with sweet, murderous wing

keeps flying and shining

around my life.

El cuchillo del otoño (2023)

CANCIÓN ORIENTAL

[...]

La granada es como un seno

viejo y apergaminado,

cuyo pezón se hizo estrella

para iluminar el campo.

F. GARCÍA LORCA

A Northwest Indian or Persian Straight Sword 18th Century With wide single-edged watered-steel blade which tapers towards the point, the blade with a kirk narduban pattern consisting of vertical lines separating rosettes, the steel hilt of typical tulwar form with curved knuckle guard, gold koftgari decoration with multiple floral sprays contained within strapwork and geometric borders, later purple-velvet covered wooden scabbard 35¾in. (90.8cm.) long Provenance The Dr. Leo S. Figiel Collection of Mogul Arms, 24 August 1998, lot 2013 Literature Leo S. Figiel, M.D., On Damascus Steel, New York, 1991, pp.68-69 Lot Notes When it was published by Figiel, he wrote that whilst this blade was characteristic of north west India, the absence of a ricasso on the blade may justify a Persian attribution.
