Frank Beltrame 11 stag picklock bayo (b rostfrei)

Post by picklocksrock »

Never been used classic Frank Beltrame switchblade knife. Full cut profile brass liners! This knife is of extremely fine workmanship! You can just feel the quality in your hand. This is my only Frank Beltrame 11 picklock, This one here is marked b rostfrei. After doing a tiny bit of research it turns out this tang stamp is very special because it’s the first stamp that Frank Beltrame used in his first shop opened up around 1970.

That is a beauty. You are right, the Frank B. picklocks do have a unique feel.

Very nice! What year(s) was Frank Beltrame using that stamp?

Im not 100% certain on the date of this knife so I don’t want to assume. But it’s not that one from the link.

Thank you! I believe this particular stamp was one of Franks first stamps once he opened his own shop in around 1970.

Beauty. Do the bolster ears seem to have their own cut/look too?
