Is this a Italian knife?

I had a Smith & Wesson very similar to this years back.

Got one from Bladeopps, performance is the same as regular Kalasnikov.

I have ordered half dozen Ganzo/Firebird autos. All worked well. The Buck copies are even better.

AKC in Austria, they replied quickly and favoriably to my inquiry, very pleased.

Offer to sell removed as you have not followed the simple guidelines laid out in the Forum Rules, a link to which appears on every page.

Turns out the inner liner was bent causing the tightness. The Mfg agreed to have a look so i shipped it off. Let all know around October how I made out.

Reciently viewed a 110 and 112 from the orient. I was amazed at the quality.

You're probably going to have to remove the back spring in order to determine if the spring is repaceable or welded in.

I tried the blades before posting but was afraid a piece would get lodged inside and I'ed be screwed. Happy to report the vice side to side worked. Thanks very much Bill. Thanks John

Thanks I had viewed your video prior to making my post. I think the pivot is overpeened. Other than clamping the blade in a vise and applieing side to side pressure (I'm afraid of snapping the blade). The knife is a AKC Lever Lock SP

What is the best way for me to correct a tight blade pivot. Just received a NOS Italian Shellpuller with a very tight pivot. Tried the usual lube but it seems its the pivot itself. The blade deploys but stops three quarters the way and becomes very snug without any play. Any constructive advise will...

is the light horn still available?

OK thanks guys, now to find a home for it. Anyone know the maker of this Auto. Only mark is USA stamping. It's all steel, please feel free to add comments. Thanks, Rick
