Great call bringing this thread back to life. I remember when these titanium knives started coming out and never knew the story on them. I asked frank a few years ago if he could still make them and he just said straight up "NO". This kind of tells me why. I think it was around 2008 a seller had som...

Hey Bklz, Good to see you out and about. Great pair of knives!! Out of the lot you showed me those two are definatley the prizes. Sorry I haven't had a chance to respond to your last email and I don't come to this forum very often. Like I was telling you I can't remember the last time I saw an "AK47...

Incredible as it might seem, there are now folks in Maniago willing to produce new models of switchblade knives. The goal is to produce something somewhat different, and of very high quality, while of course keeping an eye on the classic Stiletto design. I can't believe I'm saying this but it would...

These fumes are extremely corrosive. They will ruin the knife, and any others near it.

So that's what happened....dam celluloid.

I want it! I've been a chef for 20 years and a renaisannce style steel with "blood grooves" is exactly what I need to keep my cooks in line. My job would be even easier with the matching sword/carver! You got a cool peice of metal there, enjoy it..........And Bill thanks for the most entertainng thr...

I emailed AKC and Stu from fortune sales sent an email to angelo on my behalf, no replies......

So I have this perfect 13" stag catalana from the Campolins. Except for the leaf spring that broke on me a couple months back. I would like to get it fixed but have hit a lot of dead ends trying to find someone to do it. I emailed the maker of the knife and some of the suppliers I buy from here in t...
