Tetsubo,
I have a request for a homemade weapon design if you have a mind to work it up. It is called a shadowfang. It is a small dagger-esque weapon with short blades coming out of each side of the wooden grip. These blades curve forward as a pair of fangs, pointing slightly inward but with a cutting edge on both sides of each fang. the steel that make up the come together in front of the grip forming a handguard. In addition, two slight groves curve from the ends of the grip to just before the points of the fangs. These act as groves for poison.
The closest true weapon I can think of to this are the deer horn knives of Pa-Kua Kung Fu, except the downward curving blade does not go beyond the "fangs" acting instead as a pure handguard without an edge, the fangs of the blades curve inward more, and the entire weapon is more compact and used as an assassins weapon.
Thanks Tetsubo. I can draw a quick sketch for my players, but I would not be able to do the weapon the justice you are able to. I guess I should also say that I have been copying many of the the other weapons you have uploaded as references for my campaign world. The recent Gnoll Glaives have become the signature weapon of a certain hobgoblin mercenary regiment making waves in my world.
