Definitely a benefit!

thom wrote:Another beauty. Where do you keep finding these knives?

Thanks Thom. This is yet another find in Angelo's Antique Dept..(3knives)

Don't know a lot about B. Svoboda, but looking to start digging into older posts. Nice little 8" picklock.

You know, I really do like the custom work that AIK does, but I must say, I'm just never thrilled with the pin replacement with screws. I know the screws are supposed to be gold plated and all.

Here's what I got on inventory from Walt for the 9" (23cm) 2018 Edition:
Brazilian B & W

This is the wrong size, but maybe you can contact this site to see if they have it in 28cm. As I've never personally seen single blades for sale anywhere else. Good luck! http://www.pvk.vegas/Frank-Beltrame-23C ... -blade.htm
