ROMO manuals

Post by Panzerfaust »

Here are a couple of ROMOs, a humpback and slip joint. The blade and back spring of the humpback are really thick.

I do too and the older ones are the same quality as the 1950s switchblades and some of the manuals were made in the 1950s. I cringe whenever I see a picture of one that was converted into an automatic. These knives are collectible in their own right.

Totally agree! I too hate to see them ruined by the conversion to autos!

They ARE nice! And, vintage Italian manual stilettos are fetching quite prices these days, if & when you can find them.
