My Frank B with blonde horn

Post by picklocksrock »

I have not seen these for sale in years. I wonder if Frank will make any more knives in blonde horn.

Some nice Blondes here for sure. Here are a few I've had for some years. 9" dagger blade is stamped Frank B Italy. 11" dagger has a very faint stamp of Stiletto Italy. Both have the same build, quality, snap and feel. The 9" swinguard is stamped Stainless Italy and is a thicker, heavier knife. I bought it about the same time as the other two here. I think it's a Beltrame but not 100% sure, so any info is appreciated.

Here's another honey from Frank B from one of the flatguard picklock runs he made for Walt, but with an eponymous stamp. Probably has the nicest action of any stiletto I own, including the custom and vintage picklocks. Go figure.
