Have you ever seen those? The lineup was really impressive.

I know they are rare but I also know what I see them sold for!!! Great knives !!! Your line up is out standing! I saw about ten of them on a cart in Rome back in the 1970s.....I should have grabbed a few back then!

I always like hearing your stories of all the oldies you saw when you were there. That would have been an amazing sight!!

Those I posted were found in an old factory about 15 years ago.
