Re: Worlds crappiest switchblade thread.

No doubt the designs have some style. Functionally though, there is room for desire. Only two of the 4 work. I believe Bill is right and these are made of die cast zinc. Buttons are plastic. I'd sure like to know what those characters mean.

Re: Smith and Wesson Swing Blade Boot Knife Model 6042

I don't have that one exactly. I do however have a S&W Viper. I've got it up on the AAPK store if interested.

Re: Anyone know anything about this site?

I'd like to hear from anyone who knows about or has done business with the following website. They're showing my desired AKC shot puller lever lock not only in stock which I haven't found anywhere else in the US, but at the hard to believe price of $55.99 for ebony wood scales and a few dollars mor...

Re: Rizzy and medici values

Hello Twobit. The black rizzy is a finger grove and sometimes called a knuckle rizzy. They are sought after. I've seen very minty ones go for $350. Hard to know condition from your pic. I agree with Mario and $200 is probably a minimum.

Re: Appreciate Any Observations On An Old Picklock

Most, if not all of the stamps used in Maniago in the 1950s and 1960s were probably made by the same person(s.) Tks Bill. Would that be the Beltrame family? Regarding the stamp KOBRA and in the case of the knife I added a few pictures of, it is certainly not Arabic for "high quality spring repair" :D
