No problem: knives will be entirely manufactured in Italy, so we'll have them here and can ship them to you in Germany, or sell directly in Maniago.Switch King wrote:I just hope that the new (old) may also be ordered directly in Italy. So I come to Germany to enjoy. Of course at my own risk.

HO! HO! 
I do not collect knives, I accumulate them. I buy a knife because it might be USEFUL 
I would buy a knife [on impulse] because it seems, I might have a USE for it I have over a hundred knives that prove I was wrong 
And, probably the same number that prove the usefulness was temporary 
I will let others [collectors] decide 
...That seems like it would be hard on the tip of the blade. Is there a little triangular indentation in the bottom of the trapdoor that the tip fits into to reduce the wearing down of the tip?You then close the trap door on the tip of the blade and push it down into a locked position, ready to fire again
...But am I correct about how they go back in the blade? Like there's a little extra room on each side on the shaft the blade goes in, and when the blade goes in the guards get pulled in like a kleenex being pulled back into the box?The guards on the M//T are for show only. They are useless as guards.
A high quality Maniago OTF would be absolutely awesome. All/most guards are nearly uselessBill DeShivs wrote:The guards on the M//T are for show only. They are useless as guards.

If the knife is M-Masterpiece is open and you hold it upside down, do the guards dangle downwards (towards the tip of the blade) or does something keep them in the horizontal position?
