Re: Big knife
The original Stilettos were fixed blade daggers, designed to penetrate chain-mail armor 
Re: Big knife
There are lots od artisans making traditional Italian knives. I think the ones by Sandro Mariani are very nice.

NB the traditional Sicilian stiletto was manual only. I think the posts I wrote about them are still up at Teddy's.
