One is "Black Cow" on a stick. ( like a "Turkish Taffy ") it is a white round straight rolled paper sti...

Re: alphabetized list of Switchblades in Films
Stumbled across this on YouTube.
Tarzan in Manhatten . . . . romance/comedy (early George of Jungle theme)
He confronts hoodlums, makes them drop weapons. . .
I can see two black rizzys and a Johnson Smith catalog pewter claw handle dagger.

Re: "EvenStephen" Dodge
I recall the name "EvenStephan" . . . but I never thought of him a builder.
I certainly did not know he produced this level of art talent.

Re: Solinger Fahrtenmesser
In the link . . . the middle knife on the cover page.
I have a similar knife without the blade etch.
I chipped the point, and it is re-tipped. but it's subtle.
I can't recall the tang stamp.
I'm curious now. . . I have to get someone to dig it out.

Re: US Government to Ban Pocket Knives June 30th, 2009
I never understood the switchblade ban.
I grew up with a Marine Kabar, and a Machete, and a Sykes-Fairbaine Stiletto Dagger.
And my personality runs away from Drama. . .whether live in person. . .or in written form.
