Okay, the only thing I do with plants is put them in a bowl, cover them with balsamic vinegar and start forking. But I recently received a Victorinox grafting knife, a chisel-ground sheepsfoot/wharncliffe looking deal (which I just noticed is ground left handed, but what do I care?), and that got me looking at the rest of these knives:

There's a lot of overlap, but there's a couple that are only one color.
Anyway, would someone out there mind giving me a summary of what some of these shapes are for, or pointing me somewhere I can find out? Naturally I can't have a knife without knowing everything about it, and I'm maybe interested in picking up a couple of these, too.
There are some flat out funky looking designs on those pages, and I'd love to know what they're for. For instance, is my knife, which looks like a 3.9050, supposed to be ground this way, or do I have a left handed version? All I know so far is what I've said, and that it's a darn fine utility knife, and is an absolutely incredible value buy.
Thanks a bunch,
