Are you looking for Italian stiletto knives or some other type of knife
Latama.net is another excellent site for Italian knives and others type of knives.
Plus what Eric said above.

Re: Where is a good honest place to buy autos
I buy my Italian knives from Adams International. Personalized service, they usually lube and test everything before it ships. I've also called them and they are very nice to deal with.
I've also had good luck with Blade HQ and their sister site Grindworx. Also knifecenter is very reliable too.

I met Barry Adams of Adamsinternational at the 2012 Blade Show. We had a good conversation and he seemed like a nice guy. It doesn't surprise me that they lube and test everything.

I don't know about that, but it does help you find things. Unless it is something that doesn't fit their agenda.

Re: Where is a good honest place to buy autos
3knives.went out of their way for me when I needed something fixed.
I'd 2nd comments that AIK are good people - Barry once talked me out of a knife they had in stock and told me the Microtech alternative was a better knife for less money.
PVK wouldn't do the absolute minimum to fix something.
Not for lack of me asking. Thankfully the manufacturer was willing to help.

Re: Where is a good honest place to buy autos
Blade HQ and Grindworx occasionally get some Italians in stock but they usually sell out pretty fast. They’re always well stocked with other autos though, especially the budget friendly ones like the Boker Kalashnikovs and Lightning OTFs. PVK.Vegas always seems to be well stocked with Italians. They have a lot of AGA swinguards at the moment and quite a few Latama’s. The Sharper Deals auction site and All About Pocket Knives have a good variety of new and used autos from various individual private sellers and collectors. That’s where you occasionally see some of the older rare ones pop up like the EdgeCo’s, Rizzutos, and NATO Military/Super Automatic OTFs.
