Any humpback is great, and leaf spring fired ones are fantastic additions to the collection!

The hump backs are so cool.
Re: 60's Humpback/Lockback
I have three humpback manual Stilleto's; a 23cm Inter, a 20cm Alamo and a 14cm Seymour Cutlery.
The Inter and the Alamo both have "Patent 77431" on the back of the tang.

Re: 60's Humpback/Lockback
Absolute coolness, for sure. I really like the 9" dark horn, well I like all of them, but I'm partial to dark horn. Alas, I own zero auto humpbacks.
However, sometime back when I was digging for a Frosolone to weigh, I found a 15 inch manual Kris in Pearlex. It was the Maniago made model that EdgeCo sold back in the day. It's got an INOX stamp and an Edge medallion where the button would be. It was like going back in time when I found it, it was still in its original box and plastic replete with one of their inserts advertising their Italian stilettos. I wiped it down and packaged it back up. At some point I'm gonna run through some of these "finds" and toss them up on Blade Pics!!
That aside, thanks for posting these pics dude, I love seeing some of these Crown Jewels of stiletto collecting!!

Re: 60's Humpback/Lockback
They are very nice. I think they should produce humbacks again in all sizes.
