Howdy y'all, Selling a few from out the ol' knife chest. 11"...swedge grind...ivory white scales...works just fine... nice fast crisp snap... a little peaking...but working safety. Bail is etched. Selling it with a ~6.5" Japanese guard less stiletto... faux mop scales, front scale missing some plast...

Howdy,
I got one I'll sell you for $115 shipped.
11" Frank B. Black horn. Hard snap, tight lock up... guards are much tighter than most of these kind.
Send me your cell number in a PM and I'll text you pics and a vid of operation.
All the best,
Crittenden

Those scales are Amboyna Burl. -rare and difficult to work with. The most expensive classic wood pipes use this and other types of rare woods. I had an AGA 13" swing jars with the same wood, and sold the damn thing for $250... I've been kicking myself ever sense. It turned out to be one of three in ...

Howdy Don C, You're catalogue of 13 inchers are quite nice. I love those 13" pick locks they did. The 11" they're putting out are swank too! But their 13" picklocks that old man Campolin released were the "shizzle" as they say. Apparently when they came over, 1 out of 2 were garbage. But about 6 or ...

howdy Stagnut, You can try googling their phone number and calling. However, most folk in the knife biz in Maniago go on a month long vacation during this time of year. I use to be in fair contact with Vittorio Centa, but have been out of the scene for the most part over the past few years. I wish y...

Check you pm please

Howdy y'all. I've got a Dalton piece for sale here: 9" long, this thing opens with a smack, rocks the hand, sits dead center and deep, and locks open like a vault! Blade reads "1991 - 2006" with the Dalton logo, and "15th ANNIVERSARY" on the other side of the blade. Handles are machined blue G-10, b...

My turn 8) This'n, I'm no longer am the caretaker of, but Mr. Havlin makes the nicest switchblades I've ever owned and this one was by far my favorite: 13" square button, 1/4" picklock, with beautiful black and white cow horn http://i218.photobucket.com/albums/cc193/F-reddy/th_PLP-openfrontback.jpg ...

It all too often happens that info posted later in a thread does not take into account information contained in earlier posts. Later on when someone reads the thread they tend to rely on the latest posts which may be erroneous. With that in mind, here is some clarification about who built and who s...

Howdy praetorian, I'm sorry for the loss of your friend, man. RIP Andy. As for the knife. if you could post a group shot of everything, that would also be a valuable post. the giant piece you've got was made by Armando Beltrame. And previous posts signify that. I'd ball park it between $600 and $120...

Hey hey hey,
I wanna play too!
I will when I have some time.
But so far, homeboy Danny Baily might put other collections to shame, as Viking pointed out
you know wicked John has got some amazing wicked pieces too
who else???
all the best,

I've had 3 of Due Buoi's Seven12 leverlocks (now only have two: one Asian horn which I purchased directly from Vittorio at blade 2013, and one shaved stag which I bought from another collector in KY), and they are by far my favorite lever locking/opening switchblades inspired by the German mechanism...

p.s. the Sam Polk knife available through latama.net are made to order by Burn knives. However, I believe PLP -Picklok Pat (Pat Havlin --the greatest handmade stiletto maker of all time, anywhere, hands down!!!) may have made some for Walt, but I am not 100% on that (have not confirmed it with Mr. H...

Howdy folk, The stilettos produced by Walt Halucha (latama.net), marketed under the name Latama, are made by Frank Beltrame. The 5mm stilettos are Frank's best pieces, when it comes to the classic stiletto sexiness. The 9" / 23 cm size is more expensive because there were less than 300 made, while t...
