Anyone know where this was made? If it is Asian, is it the better quality one? Thanks.

Looks like one of the Edgeco catalog knives they sold where you could remove the kick spring.

Once again I thought I was getting a weird Asian knife because of the solid sear (seer?) hole and the rivet thing between the safety and bolster.

I'm keeping it. What's it worth out of curiosity(sp.)?

To most of us, probably less than $50 bucks, but on Ebay it could fetch thousands...lol

If you can make it a whole week on Ebay without the listing being removed, you can get a shocking amount of money for a knife like that. Just be sure not to use words like 'switchblade' or 'automatic'. If you call it 'assisted-opening' you might have better luck.

The most important thing, and I can not stress this enough, is that you start the auction at the absolute minimum allowed price. It seems like they never let me start lower than $.99 but I see other stuff started at $.01.

Also, if it does get removed, don't list it again. That is how you get banned on Ebay.

After having 11's, the smaller knives are kind of weird. I just wanted something I could have as "flick therapy" and that "Stiletto" knife I got, I was fixing it and it was a little better until I broke one of the screw holes on the front scale (oops), and my other knife, I decided to put with my collection ( knives I don't play with). Someone here wanted me to post pics of the disassembled "Stiletto", so I just might do that.

Hi Chis,
The small stilettos a really awesome. They fire hard and fast. Your newest addition to your collection looks way cool. Is this a new knife or one from perhaps the 70s?
