Who made it?

Post by Claudester »

Does anyone know who might have made this 9" stiletto. Its the only one I have with a two piece backspring ( if thats what you call it ) solid bolsters and Italy and stainless on the tang.

That is a F. Beltrame "Switch" model, I believe.

Thanks Bill,
The scales are screwed in with brass screws but I was surprised to see that the liners were steel. I picked this up with another 9" that has Stiletto Siciliano etched across the bayo blade and on the tang it has STILETTO, ITALY and under that ROSTFREI. This one has all brass. Anything on this one
