Marco Polo AGA 13" and AB 9" Picklocks
Hello gentlemen, i have got the 13" Aga back , iam going to name it Marco as its done a bit of travelling, from Italy to the Usa, from the Usa to England , from England back to Italy and finally back to me in Merrie olde England .I knew these had issues with them and this one was very sluggish to open but thanks to my very good friend Andrea from Superior knives it has been repaired and now it fires a lot better. The blade has now got 2 spacing washers between it and the liners, he also fitted a new Nickel silver safety ( they were stainless on these) and re polished the blade as the liners had scratched it up .Thank you Andrea The other picklock is one of our sponsors knives , Armando Beltrame, very well put together , tight and with a lovely snap on it

Hello Peter,
Nice stag on the 9 incher . The 13 incher is awesome. I'm glad the doctor was able to help its sluggishness . It sure has done a lot of traveling. It must have a lot of frequent flyer miles. Does it qualify for a free trip back to the US?

Hello Peter
Wow, your collection gets better and better. Two new beauties.
The Marco Polo (Campolin) is super cool. Nice that it works now without problems.
It is now a world citizen
I like these sizes. I would like a 15 inch stiletto.
The Picklock of MR.Armando looks great too.
I like the pressure on the blade.

I have been thinking of doing a group shot. I'm going to do it my tang stamp, Frank B's, Pascotto's, Campolin's etc.
I hope to start the project soon.
BTW You can never have too many knifes

Hey Pete.Marco didn't make it to Missouri. Send it on one more journey and make it complete.
Besides you have too many knives as it is.
Route 66 Baby!
