TalkBlade.Info Knife Forums

That's cool, Jerry. Hard to imagine it's 7", but really nice! Looks smaller.

Nice to see an old thread brought back to life. Gives me a chance to inquire about my Raimondo. I have no doubt it is one, but mine doesn't have the word "SPRING" on the tang. Everything else seems to check out: 11", the keyhole shaped locktab, of course RAIMONDO lengthwise on the blade. The scales ...

A beautiful knife, and I agree, quite a financial investment.

It's a great little knife, for sure! The 4.5" one that sold on Arizona Custom Knives for $700, was actually a rare swivel bolster, which the fact that it's a swivel bolster Coricama in a rare size. But, your knife has definite big value.

I hope Bob doesn't make the forum completely disappear, even if we can't post or comment there. There's still 20+ years of knowledge there that is still very valuable.

Get well soon, Bill.

I think they call that style a "Karambit" ?

Unfortunately, the FB version of SharperDeals isn't much of a sales or auction group. At least, no more than any other switchblade group. I'm not sure what Bob's original plans were for it.

Nice knife!

I don't find a lot of quality differences either. To me, "Beltrame" covers all 3 names.Then, there is always that one may supply the blades, the other the liners...etc., all on the same knife.

I know what you mean, Thom. I call it "over travel", like a reverse banana blade. Hate each with a passion!

A Japanese pre-Rizzuto sounds like a 1950's Japanese picklock. But, wouldn't have batwings , referring to swinguards. Looking forward to pics...

I believe that's referred to as "The Joker" knife from one of the Batman movies. It's a clone of a model made by Robbie Dalton called "Cupid".

Let's see what I've been following along here...





...congratulations, Fishtail!
