Re: 11" Stag Swinguard - Flat Grind

Guys - here are the 9" swinguards mentioned earlier. Knives are well made, and fire and lockup nicely. Both have the same stamp = Stainless Italy.

Re: 11" Stag Swinguard - Flat Grind

Thanks for the info guys. You mention pre-Beltrame period. Any idea who made these prior to Beltrame buying the tooling? I have a couple of 9" swinguards stamped Stainless Italy that I always thought were Beltrame. I'll post pics of these. Cheers.

11" Transitional - Rostfrei Import

Hi Guys - Here is a nice 11" I picked up some years back. Bought it mainly because of the nice front horn with red-dot safety. Swivel release, nickel bolsters, full brass liners etc. Nice smooth hard snap and really tight lockup. Guessing it's a 1960's era knife based on fit, feel and style. Cheers ...

11" Stag Swinguard - Flat Grind

Hi Gents -
Recently read a few posts with Flat Grind blades so thought I'd post this one. I've had this 11" swinger a long time. Nice thick Stag scales, tight lockup, smooth firing and nice blade. Marked 440 B Stainless. Certain it is a Beltrame based on the fit, finish and feel.
Cheers -
Jeff
