B Svoboda 8" Kris
Hello Gentlemen , been looking for this one for a few years since i was a boy and first saw The Ladykillers from 1955, Herbert Lom is the Gangster with a kriss picklock , his looks like an 8" but im not too sure anyway im very happy to have found one D stamped liner, Nickel furniture, slip in spring and a lovely heavy feeling snap when it opens Locks up tight no movement either way. Here it is with its 6 1/4" clip baby brother.

A true beauty, my friend! Together they're a great Svoboda pair you can be real proud to own!
Re: B Svoboda 8" Kris
Great additions. I find the kriss blades cool and a bit sinister looking, but like them.

Hi Peter,
Glad for you. It's a nice feeling when you have been searching for so long for something and then keeping watch in his hands.
I like it very good.
Where you can always find these beautiful pieces?

Hello Peter,
I can see that your New Year's Resolution was to add as many vintage knifes as possible to your collection before the fist two weeks of the year were over.
You added two wicked cool tang stamps to your collection and the two knives look fantastic; the horn of the small knife is awesome. Both knives are beautiful.

So I'm trying to gather information on this dagger I acquired from a friend of mine. I know it's an Svoboda, it's a keeps, I'm just not sure how old though.
