Collectable Information On Auto Russian Knife

Post by Guest »

HI:
I am sure most here saw the 6 russian knives on Knifeshop site. I kept a copy of the documentation on it. It has a picture of the Ladya knife and it is all in Russian. If anyone wants a copy of it just email me for a copy.

YEA!
That is bad for them to take your knife,since it may not be able to replace if no more come in. I got mine and they were not bad at all. I agree with the Spotlight kid,they are good as italian leverlocks. A fine working knife.
I have had my share of them taking my knives! Then send you a letter of how much it mean to them. In a small word statment it says
" items will be destroyed,unless the government has a use for them!"
Kinda makes me feel they found a use for them called their collection.

I just got back from one of my favorite Gun Shops. While I was there the
owner showed me a Knife he got on his last trip to Russia.
Now what do you think he had?
A baoynet?-------------------------------nope
One of the so-called AK-47s?----------wrong
The infamous Leverlock?---------------Bingo
He had only one and past tense is proper because it's mine now.
After some very brief negotiations I got it for $1.00 over the price I paid
KnifeShop. And this time kustoms did not have a chance to get it and I didn't have to pay S&H. It's mine all mine. [Great Knife].
The only thing I can add to what others have said is that the
blade is Tang-Stamped with a Moose Head. If anyone else posted that, I missed it, but it is visible in the picture on KnifeShop. Also there is some file work on the liners next to the spine. Good snap, solid and tight, lock-up with no virtually play. All in all I'm happy to finally have one after kustoms stole the one I ordered from KS.
