From my accumulation of knives.
Two 11 inch flat grinds. One in basic black plastic, the other in not-very-well matched stag.
Both open fast and lock up tight.
The stag is a bit of a banana, and has a slightly wider blade. Also a very proud button that will actually move the safety off if pressed hard enough.
I don’t know which is older; I’ve had the stag about 40 years, and the plastic maybe 20-30 (?).
I prefer the flat grind blades over the bayo style; hard to mess up the grind lines if there are no lines.
Nothing special here, just your basic meat-and-potatoes Italian switchblades, but still pretty cool.

Re: 11 inch Flat Grinds
Very nice, and no need to criticize the stag, I like it.

Re: 11 inch Flat Grinds
First, the stag is nice! What is the tang stamp on the black plastic? I see stainless but not what is above it. The stag is older from what I see. I personally like the flat blades the best myself some what for looks, but more so for use as a cutting edge. I actually like to have a useful knife and the flat blades meet that need the best....
Re: 11 inch Flat Grinds
The stag is nice, I’m just kinda picky about stag scales.
The black knife is stamped “Italy Stainless.”
Here is another pic of the stag. You can see daylight between the scale and the bottom of the button.
I don’t know any way to fix, short of removing the scale.
