Hi,
I’m newly registered but not new to knives or other forum’s. I thought I’d make my first post an introduction. I’ve collected auto’s on and off, buying and selling over the decade’s. My first was when I was a teenager, in the back of probably a soldier of fortune magazine. It might have been from the edge company, can’t quite remember but it was a green and black handled “nato military” otf. Over the year’s I’ve had Italian switchblade’s of different varieties, Benchmade, microtech, Dalton, some custom’s etc.
Although not great for edc use, I alway’s seem drawn back to Italian and german old school classic’s, when I start dabbling back into auto’s. I just picked up a recent production Latama, and I liked that it was well made, so I have another on order and also an Italian Leverlock to satisfy my current switchblade urge.
Great forum here, with alot of information.
Thanks!

Here’s a pic, couldn’t get the flash to work so it’s a little dim

Welcome. The old OTF Nato was a early one for many of us!
