Notes

Two knives (Jagged Edge knife and Twice Folded) are in the skills/carving menu; unknown what level they first appear. The blades for these knives have an unknown or unimplemented construction method. Given that they require high quality items, probably the same pattern as the Sharp Edged Knife.
