Looking good!

[quote=jocko952021 post_id=306535 time=1615917387 user_id=20878] I purchased two of the 9 inch Indiana automatics. They came in perfect condition and look great. The problem is in the operation of the blade releases. The push button on the swinguard was extremely difficult to depress. It took two th...

Anyone have an idea what these things go for? Specifically the flat button red dot swinguards? The last two I saw went for roughly 150 to 200 on azck and BF

Thanks for the heads up. I just saw it. Too late I think though. That's exactly what I was looking for.

[quote=Tom19176 post_id=305974 time=1613130671 user_id=4077] At the last Mystic show there was a 11" Frank B swing guard with horn handles selling for $85. I passed his table three times and looked at it a few times. He said make me an offer..lol..I didn't want it but that was closer to the old pric...

Still looking!

Just to piggyback on this but anyone also have any sources for where they are getting people's used knives?

Do you have a price you're looking for it?

[quote=JulesVane post_id=305837 time=1612529765 user_id=14633] I’m not sure why PVK is calling that swinguard Indiana (Jndiana). I see they show the company logo, but it’s not on the knife. And, 1990’s? I don’t believe it myself. [/quote] Does this mean we're in uncharted waters as far as what these...

Whats been your experience as far as reliability getting them in from this vendor and their quality of stock?

Hi all, I've been daydreaming about the future swinguards in my future and happened upon this site. Can anyone point me in a direction to find out more about this company and the quality of their work? I'm thinking about picking one up. Seems interesting enough. Thanks all! https://www.pvk.vegas/Vin...

Never really got into many of the non Italian autos but of all the ones I've handled over the years, the only one I almost bought was a customish Protech Godfather. It had coral scales with a two tone black and stainless frame. Only reason I didn't go through with it was cause the owner of Protech d...

Still looking, waiting, hoping

[quote=hwevers post_id=305177 time=1610739118 user_id=2820] Not for nuthin, but... Frank B. 11" swingers seem to be a little scarce these days. Those that have them are hanging on to them. I've got a few in the more common scales and a couple in the harder to find group. There is a video on You Tube...

Hi Stu. I'm in the Los Angeles area and can make a trip down there. I'm looking to fill my collection back up with switchblade after a long hiatus. I'm looking for Italians. Do you mind letting me know what you gave available?
