I like STU's verbiage:

"This is NOT a real Italian switchblade"
"The Taiwan Connection"
etc. etc.

You're probably right, Mr. Claudester. Have also seen some and they were not all kits.

Start reloadin'...... here's another one. Somebody called "boxlot" on BA is pushing his milanos by implying age/vintage by writing things like, "no cracks, breaks, or chips"...."spring action like new"...."This one's in Great condition!!".... and to top it all off , "perfect swing guard". What a maroon!

Gotta cut the boxman some slack. Haven't seen the ad, but he often sells some pretty decent stuff.

Send the item # - that way we can all start sending him mail. LOL!

Floater,

Did I read you post correctly? Stilettos from Taiwan now come in maroon without chips or cracks? :D

Sammy,

One could logically conclude that ibesober had indeed been imbibing. However, it seems that a few months ago I remember Rizzutos going for >$100 on BA. It seemed that there was a short-lived Rizzuto frenzy. I think Bonzo sold a few, perhaps he could refresh our memories.

Mr. Jim D,

My most profitable sales to date. I almost regret getting rid of one of them because it was in mint condition, no scratches on the handles or blade, and the blade sat deep in the handle. Something hard to find these days considering how cheaply they were built. Ol' Burn got some high $ for some he sold off as well.


Best Regard's,

Bonz

Bonzo.

It is hard for me to imagine a sentence containing both "Burn" and "Rizzuto" without a negative modifier. But you managed to do it.
