Italian switch blade
Looking for a good quality Italian switch blade. Something I can cut boxes and stuff with.

Re: Italian switch blade
Italian switchblades are stabbing weapons, not cutting weapons. You'd do better with a Buck knife or a plain box cutter. You are describing a Cadillac for pizza delivery.

Re: Italian switch blade
I meant more like opening boxes. Not planning on using it much. I'm just looking for something that's good quality and looks nice. Not that black plastic stuff

Re: Italian switch blade
Leverlettos are nice. If you go to Bladeplay and order a Buck 110 Auto (manufactured in Post Falls Idaho) you'll have a "lifetime knife" for $140.00. This knife will satisfy every light/medium cutting task you can ever encounter.

Good luck!

Thanks for the suggestion fishtail I might grab one in the future. It looks real nice but I'm looking for the Italian style right now

Re: Italian switch blade
A Leverletto is an excellent "light-duty" knife. I understand the desire for an Italian knife. Another option would be either a Frank or Armando Beltrame swivel lock or picklock with a flat-ground blade. These will also serve in a light-duty capacity, but not quite as well as a Leverletto.
All the best and I hope that you find the knife you need.
