"M Italy" 13 inch picklocks
Here is a pair of M Italy I found in good condition. I am not sure about their age. I only collect 13" and 11" switchblades. These "M Italy" seem to be more common than other makers.

Nice! Do either of your M ITALYs have one piece springs?
Re: "M Italy" 13 inch picklocks
Peiper - those are very nice and from the photos I would say you understated things a bit with "I found in good condition"

Re: "M Italy" 13 inch picklocks
Thanks for the replies. Are "M Italy" switchblades more common than other makers? I see more of them than others. Hearandgone, to answer your question, these have a two-piece spring. Here is a picture. If I am wrong, then let me know.

Re: "M Italy" 13 inch picklocks
You’re absolutely right about the spring. Thanks for checking. I only asked because the last 13” M ITALY I acquired has a one piece spring, the only time I’ve seen that.
Re: "M Italy" 13 inch picklocks
years ago i had (2) 13" (M.italy inox) kriss blade models with both 1 piece and (slip in type) 2 piece spring/backspring , i sold the 1 piece model years ago but i still have the 2 piece model.
