New guy says hello

Post by Crazykids20 »

Hello all,
Im writing to you from mass. Ive always been a fan of the blade scene but have never ventured to forums for questions and or advice. I have two knifes that i have queations about. One is what i think a 1950s era italian made s.m.co. switch and the other is a gurka? Im not sure of the spelling its a reverse curve military style brush clearing blade its origin, year, and make are all unknown to me.
Anyways i figure ill wait to hear back from you all before i start trying to upload any pics.. thanks for reading.

Welcome, you came to a good place for answers but unfortunately I can't help you with these questions. I'm sure there is someone here who will be able to!

Hello, I was a member of the old switchblade forum and have collected knives for years, and I wanted to see how things have changed over the last several years.
