I actually thought the original question was whether a Walt's Flatguard was better than a Walt's Classic stiletto. Which ARE thicker liners, nickel/silver bolsters and 5mm blades and backsprings. I don't think there was ever a doubt that a Walt's Flatguard was better than a "common" 3mm Italian stil...

These are all 11"

Cool Thom! The prices weren't bad back in '07- '08. Were they the last years Walt's Flatguard Picklocks were available?

Beautiful collection of Walt's Thom. I foresee new additions in the very near future!

Thanks for the info, JulesVane! Is this a newer knife or older? How much would this thing be worth? I tried looking up the info you gave, but couldn't find much. As Bill stated above, Walt is a super nice guy, and if you sent him these pics to the site Bill provided, I too am sure he will help. If ...

"Looks Like" a 9" Walt's Classic Flatguard Picklock Flat Button Dagger Grind that's had filework done to it. Brazilian Horn scales. I can't tell you what year. "Looks Like" I wish it were mine! lol...

If I'm not mistaken, I believe the 13" Batwings were introduced in 2010, and they appear to share the same body style. Only the guards seemed to change from these traditional to the Batwing guards.

Hi Chis, The small stilettos a really awesome. They fire hard and fast. Your newest addition to your collection looks way cool. Is this a new knife or one from perhaps the 70s? John Thanks John. This was actually given to me by a knife collector that had no interest in switchblades. Very nice of hi...

Seems like such a simple concept, that is very complicated. Every piece fits together "just so".

Jay, it's really a super nice find! Can it really be only 3mm thick for such a large piece? Did the seller mention the year of production or "prototipo" 3 of how many? Is that a "blood groove" going down the button side of the blade (or a reflection)? I'm sure not many could be out there. Finding th...

Perfect spot to post those beauties Jay. They really look great! I really like this little knife. Quite beefy actually. Fishtail...Angelo is definitely advertizing them as an EDC knife and not only recommended as "collection only" as he often labels others. The last of the 1st Runs are now on sale i...

Just like Jeremy says though, starting off low seems to win the big bucks. I've seen the key chain stilettos go for over $200 just because of the "bidder's pride" thing going on. Just won't accept being outbid.

...but the listing does state "winning bid" was $11,767.....

You know..I JUST realized we are in the Buy & Sell section. My apologies to the Moderators for truly getting carried away by the new Walt's. Totally lost track of where we were.

I got one, just today, much like yours Scott. 7.5", black acrylic scales, flat grind blade. Stamped INOX ....I really like the little knife!
