I have one hand built but it uses new parts. The Gentleman who made it only made about 3 or 4 of them and is a well known contributer here and TSF but he got fed up I believe with the time it was consuming , So I bot one. And all I can say is it's to bad he stopped .Mine is an 11" Blackhorn but the horn is sanded down to the bolsters,Full filework, large rear bolsters fom a 9" all in brass. Then he hand made a flat button and another matched ito a whole new safty. If ever there was a knife you had to hold on to when fired this would be it. It's a kool knife and it's one of a kind and I intend to hold on to it. Hell maybe he'll get back into and the thing will be wortha fortune :wink:

I my opinion vintage knives should stay vintage and not customized.
This is this the only customized Italian i own. A MaserinDeNardo shell puller with full rope pattern on the spring, liners and back spine with beautiful scales.
