ELIO ring pull with rare hunter style blade and ELIO brochure

Post by orangeboy »

Here is a rare dead mint ELIO DiBin picklock and his switchblade brochure. This knife was sent to an Italian import and export company with the brochure in 1961 to help him sell knives.

Over the years I have been so spoiled by some of the photos I have seen that I must admit to having become somewhat callous to photos of rare knives. However, that one blew me away, plus the ephemera..
