Marco Polo AGA 13" and AB 9" Picklocks

Post by peter44 »

Hello gentlemen, i have got the 13" Aga back , iam going to name it Marco as its done a bit of travelling, from Italy to the Usa, from the Usa to England , from England back to Italy and finally back to me in Merrie olde England .I knew these had issues with them and this one was very sluggish to open :cry: but thanks to my very good friend Andrea from Superior knives :D it has been repaired and now it fires a lot better. The blade has now got 2 spacing washers between it and the liners, he also fitted a new Nickel silver safety ( they were stainless on these) and re polished the blade as the liners had scratched it up :( .Thank you Andrea :!: The other picklock is one of our sponsors knives , Armando Beltrame, very well put together , tight and with a lovely snap on it :!: ImageImageImageImage

Hello Peter,
Nice stag on the 9 incher :D . The 13 incher is awesome. I'm glad the doctor was able to help its sluggishness :lol: :lol: :lol: . It sure has done a lot of traveling. It must have a lot of frequent flyer miles. Does it qualify for a free trip back to the US? :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

Hello Peter :!:
Wow, your collection gets better and better. Two new beauties.
The Marco Polo (Campolin) is super cool. :D Nice that it works now without problems.
It is now a world citizen :) :lol:
I like these sizes. I would like a 15 inch stiletto.
The Picklock of MR.Armando looks great too. :D
I like the pressure on the blade.

Hi Peter,
I have been thinking of doing a group shot. I'm going to do it my tang stamp, Frank B's, Pascotto's, Campolin's etc.
I hope to start the project soon.
BTW You can never have too many knifes :lol: :lol: :lol:

Hey Pete.Marco didn't make it to Missouri. Send it on one more journey and make it complete.
Besides you have too many knives as it is.

Route 66 Baby! 8)
