What date

Post by Lucentcrow »

If a knife is stamped Mauro Mario does that make it early 50s or late 50s ?

I’ve heard these knives have carbon blade so does that indicate earlier production ?

Cheers wise ones

Mid- 1950s -mid 1960s.
Some have stainless blades. I would think those would be later production.
