Re: Which is the oldest knife
Does any have a blade made of stone? That would be the oldest.

Re: Which is the oldest knife
I think you mentioned the Coricama had a dovetail. If so, that would probably be the oldest.

I agree with this. I would also think that stamp has some history to it.JimBrown257 wrote: ↑Sat Oct 12, 2019 1:04 am I think you mentioned the Coricama had a dovetail. If so, that would probably be the oldest.

Re: Which is the oldest knife
Jimbrown hi mate I’m not sure if the spring has a dovetail
I don’t know how to tell, flatguard told me the Coricama was a later one 55 to 65

Re: Which is the oldest knife
Switchblades were banned in March of 1954 in NYC, so I would think the Romo is the oldest.
