Have you seen the DiBon knives marked Mauro Mario?

Beautiful knives John.

I have one of the Fish Knives with French Point horn. I truly love that knife. All the Oreste DiBon knives are a good investment.

Nice and I carry a UTX-85 or UTX-70 and the 70 is the best office knife ever! I've thought about getting a blue Dirac but don't care for the double edge. It looks cool but is not the best choice for EDC IMO. I've been using my UTX70 S/E for light duty cutting for years. I know what you mean about t...

Weren't the flat buttons stamped WTS?

I will agree w/you Jackalope on the knife differences. Although, Beltrame limited picklocks are very sweet. I’m always on the lookout for those. Let me know if you come across any of those that you don’t have an interest in. Here is a beautiful 11" Frank B. picklock that I have owned for years. 1-D...

Here is a red handled one I just sold. It measured 8 1/8" open. This is a dagger blade Armondo Beltrame that I sold a while back.
And finally a page of patent drawings.

The German market blades can really skew a set collector.
