Two from the 60's

Post by peter44 »

Hello guys :!: today is a good day as these two arrived today. The Pattada had an issue with not closing , and when i saw a photo of the button stuck down i knew it could be a broken return spring or hopefully corrosion / crap between the bolster and button , the knife gods have been kind, as it was so, WD40 And a blowjob :lol: with the compressor and its firing and closing like a champ. Copper bolsters, brass button and safety oal is 8 and 1 half inches. Indiana extra stamp / patent to rear. Solid lock up, faux ivory scales.ImageThe second is an 8" swinger in stag, d stamped liner , nickel furniture Inox in script with patent to rear opens really fast :D solid lock up and the guards are tight too :!: ImageImage

Really like the Pattada. This type of knife would make a great pocket knife. Perfect size and an auto to boot. Great find. 8)

I watch very little television but last week I stumbled across the show with the little bald guy that eats goat butts and chicken feet. :lol:
He was in Sardinia and a guy was slicing smoked pork tissue thin using a Pattada. The knife was razor sharp because the slices were see-through.

I have to get a Pattada,love the blade design.
