Swing guard!

Post by Hombre »

Couldn´t resist this Beltrame swing guard with stag handle.... My first swing guard but not the last....
I think it looks better than the classical switchblade.... At least, for the moment.... :D
What do you think, guys?

Best,
Stefan

Wicked cool set of stag scaled knives. I really like dagger blades too. Swing guards are fabulous. The 11"stiletto is very nice. The stag scales on the two knives have great color and texture. Swing guards have a unique sound; it's awesome when they pop open. I'm sure this swing guard stiletto won't be your last. Now you'll need to collect one in every size.

Total sweetness. You did good, son. BTW, I had a couple of those 11" Frank B.'s, then a few more, then I had Straydog mangle a couple, then found some limited editions. All of a sudden I had a dozen, then lost count. I started saying I needed to sell some, but instead I keep buying them. There's just something about them. Who needs heroin?

Hi Dave,
Except for the Stay Dog sentence I thought you where writing about me. I mangled my own knives.

Hi Tom,
You're right! l must agree; after taking another look at the button placement, on what I thought was a 9" and 11" knife, it clearly shows that they are 11" and 13" knives. Good catch, thanks for your sharp attention to detail and correcting my lack of attention to detail.

The exact knife in the original post (stag 11" frank b dagger) is what got me started with this horrible addiction!

I now have 2 the other being a gold dagger in buffalo horn. Those things fire so hard they almost jump out of your hand.

I didn't mention that you mangled my first swinger, and that it's still one of my favorites.

Nice find. The swingers can be just as addictive as any other family. All depends on what rows your boat.
