Very nice! I wonder what year Mauro Mario stopped their switchblade production(?).

I'm afraid I'm not well versed enough as to whether early/mid/late '60's, but I believe the 1960's in general. The swedge style blade grind seems 1960's, but the, apparently, stainless bolsters may indicate later '60's, though the rear bolster appears brass lined. I'm not familiar with the stamps you referred to. The only stamp you've provided is the rear INOX in an oval. As far as I've read (which gets me in trouble) is that Wandy was a Mauro Mario production stamp. Thus my inquiry about the end years of Mauro Mario production since we've seen picklocks, swivel bolsters and manual lockback stilettos produced under this maker. If we find that this company was still producing into the '70's or later, it could be newer than I suspect.

Knife looks great Joe .

I cant be exact with a date for your Wandy but I have seen that INOX in a circle on a Chateraullt maker marked french Switchblade knife that was listed as early to mid 60s.
I cant find my picture of it but will keep looking.

Heres the INOX circle mark like on your wandy on a nice Vendetta transitional I missed from France a while back.This definitely looks mid 60s aswell ,but hard to give exact dates on these knives.

Dont know much about the Wandy mark pertaining to age but sure somebody here will.

Thanks ian much appreciatiated mate, I have seen a stamp with wandy inox in the same stamp but the knife looks cleaner and newer I just wondered if my one with wandy on one side and I now on the other was maybe older, it don’t matter either way just interested.
Thanks guys
