Mr. Bagman The knife should open with a vicious snap into the full locked position. If it's new it might need to be worked a little bit.

Like Bonzo, I prefer the 37" stilleto to deal with in laws who are outlaws.

Do any of you ever use blade auction anymore?

I've had only one real bad experience on BA and a couple of knives have been mediocre. Most have been satisfactory, especially considering the price. I think it's fine, and oftentimes educational, for the beginning collector to daly with BA. I was wondering what some of your experiences have been us...

I was about thirteen or fourteen when I read the book "The Cross & the Switchblade". It has alot of switchblade and New York youth gang (Bed-Stuy area) stories in it that are truly authentic. Anyone else ever read the book or the one called "Run Baby Run"?

Hi everyone, I'm new here to this forum and I'd like to get an expert opinion on something: I've got a set of eight (8) vintage Itallion picklock style stilletos, all of them 11" overall lenght and with damascus steel dagger blades. The scales are a variety of blond and dark horn, two are stag, two ...
