I'm not sure how to obtain one, I'd check the Baidarka List Archive. A Crooked Knife comes handed either right or left, is held with the blade towards the body and is drawn towards the body in use. The blade is hooked upward beyond 180°. This shape allows carving or gouging in an inside curve at the hook or on a flat using the flat part of the blade.
