Just got this Beauty in and it is almost Mint.Has a few spots on the blade keeping it from being a mint knife.It has Rams horn scales that are Flawless and kicks like a mule when you fire it

Hope Y'all like it.

That's a very nice one. Not many makers used ram's horn. The only other knife I actually saw and held in my hot little hands with that scale was a Svaboda too. I guess they specialized in that type of scale. Not too many around, I'm thinking.

Thanks for sharing, sir

Those were made by Mauro Mario (Grandpa Campolin) in the 1950s. You will find them with Rosco, MM, Svoboda, Svobody, Romo, and other markings, as well as unmarked. A very rare scale material!
