Thanks everyone! Glad to be here.

Are all of these particular model of 11" AGA picklocks made by Renzo Pascotto? I know Frank B did 11" limited edition picklocks, Walt's picklocks, and swinguards.

Probably, but mine are stamped Renzo Pascotto. Same knife, just not part of the 150 count.

yes all the 11" and 13" AGA wasp body picklocks are made by Renzo Pascotto for AGA Campolin. on the new 11" model 150 have the AGA Campolin stamp and few have Renzo Pascotto stamp.

Kind of off topic but I have a newer 18" AGA swivel bolster arriving soon. Any idea who actually makes these?
