Re: Ethan 1953 Italy

I believe Ethan was an import by Latama, but remember, Latama was/is not a knife maker. Just importer.

It is a pretty knife, and I'd love to see the markings. Blade etched? W. Germany, Germany?

Or, we can add a bail!
Oh, that's great news, Bill! I'll send you a proper email and we can discuss when you'll be able to fit me in. Thanks so much!

Puma Medici Mayhem

Hi Bill...It's a long shot, but have to ask. I don't suppose these Puma Medici manuals actually have a smoothed over bottom bolster pin, do they? I saw the knife before looking at my other 3 and thought: "Gee, that's just missing the bottom bolster pin. Bill can fix that!" After I bought it, was whe...

Re: Campolin prototipo

Like Bill said, made by Renzo Pascotto for A.G.A. Campolin. Odd how he wrote prototype in Italian on some of his knives and English on others.

Re: Abalone How Do They Do It
