The shape of the knife looks good. The little dents in the blade are probably from hitting the blade too hard and thinning the steel more in that spot than you wanted to. I'm not sure about the "grainy" marks that you are too.
They could be from forging scale into the hot steel. Always brush the scale off the face of the anvil when you're taking another heat.
