Smaller stilettos are impossible to find!

Post by knivesarecool »

Ive been trying to get my hands on a smaller size classic Italian stiletto for yeaaaars.... One that is 5.5" to 7" open. Looking for a new one just to carry as a pocket knife. Anyone got any leads? These are from 3knives.com and theyve been sold out for like 3 years.

I have some you might be interested in. The pictures show a set of 7 5/8" stilettos in four blade styles and all in matching light horn. Only the bayo has a slight banana, otherwise all work and look great.

I also have a 4 5/8" Mauro Mario picklock. I'll have to dig it out and take a picture of it if you are interested.

Let me know and we can discuss further.

Love the light horn flat grind. Not sure if you want to break up the set, but if so please let me know.
Hope all is a-ok David!
Thanks

I have a 4 1/2" OAL Classic White Pearlex that I am willing to sell. I no longer have an online account to post pictures, so I will need to email you pictures (or post them on Facebook. Blade tang is stamped "INOX".
I will push your buttons--please pass me your switchblades first.

I was wrong about my knife! It is a 5 3/8" mini SKM with swivel bolster. I have pictures, but I can't post them here. Also, the blade tang is stamped "Maniago Italy". If anyone wants to see pictures, I can email them.
