Hi Alan,
Double WOW!!!
Time to find a BIGGER drawer. I’m curious how many different Latama stamps are in your collection?
Thanks for posting your Latama knives.

Looks like u r tight on room for all ur Latamas. I’d like to volunteer at taking a couple off ur hands. Then ur others could breath easier. On a more serious note... that is an absolutely outstanding collection. Most excellent!

That is quite the Latama collection you have built. It appears that the term "king of Latamas" is now plural :D

Man John. That's a tuffy.; Latama in a box,Latama in block letters over Italy, Latama in cursive over Italy with a slant, Latama in cursive on a slant with Made in Italy, Latama in cursive with no slant over Made in Italy, Latama in block letters with a slant over Italy and to top it off the stamps are often different sizes. Of course, I probably missed some also.

Well Jim I guess we could fight it out with Latamas.
Thanks Bill. I'm sure some of these went through your hands.
Chris they're on the way. Thank you.
Hey JJ. There are a huge number of forums on FB dealing with switchblades. I see most member here and SD's, there also.

That is a really nice collection. I really like the two in the last picture. Which tang stamp is the oldest? 1st model Latama in the box or Latama Made in Italy? I am new at this and I am trying to learn the hobby. Thanks for sharing.

Beautiful collection of fine Latama Allen! Haven't you guys ever heard of the "Latama Limit"? I think you're only allowed to have so many! lol!
