flick falcon stiletto

Post by SwitchbladeMan100 »

i was just wondering, is it possible to flick out a non auto stiletto. for example a falcon stiletto, especially if it it an 11 inch?

Yes it is! I have many and about 70% ( mostly the stag) I can flick open when they are brand new. I am not sure if you view this as a good thing or a bad thing. You can tap the pin and make it harder to do. If you don't want it to flick, I suggest getting the wood first, the horn second, and stag the last as the wood most often has the tightest fit of the ones I have seen/owned, and the stag the most loose.
They have the most to offer at a good price here ( you may win one on ebay for less but not likely):

I've found the best prices for Falcon stilettos to be on the Bladematrix website- http://www.bladematrix.tv/

And the occasional ebay find.

Just to add...I would stay away from the olive wood models. I bought one and it had really rough looking scales on it. Like unfinished wood. Very dull looking, like it hadn't been treated with any sort of finish. Highly recommend the horn or stag though. :)

The Falcon name is used by the Campolins for their manual line of knives :idea:
