Who Makes the Fishtails ?

[Billyfish]

I have a couple that I have purchased, both picklocks. Who makes these?
The mark on the blade says only Stiletto Italy.
I like these knives, but the tab you use to release the spring is wicked narrow. I can't release the blade from open without mechanical aid i.e. a popsicle stick; if the tab was wider, I could get a grip on it without dislocating a fingernail.
Dammit!

I believe that they were originally from Sam Polk at LATAMA. As of late, they have come from AGA Campolin in Maniago, Italy. (Perhaps Bill DeShivs could weigh in on this).

Oreste DiBon made/assemble fish knives.
I’ve been wrong before but I believe the fish knives stamped Stiletto Italy may have been from the Beltrame family of knife makers (Frank, Armando and/or Renzo).
Someone here will have the correct answer to your question.

I have some samples of the Oreste DiBon Fishtail Picklocks. These are the smaller "pocket" picklocks that are amenable to "gentlemanly" carry.

Thanks for reminding me.
