That's an unmarked "Bambi". Done by Farfalli, Italy. Actually the unmarked ones typically were finished nicer than the marked ones. On the marked ones you can usually see grind lines on the blade, the non marked usually were polished to a nicer finish. The very unusual one of these actually has Italy on the tang. I've only seen one with a tang stamp.In the picture, upper left are "Bambis", Farfallis and the top one is the Italy tang stamp. Bottom three are pens done by Farfalli also, the one above those is a traditional picture shell wrap. Hope this helps.

If it's something you really like like Mike does you can never have enough. Those mini's don't take up a lot of room either.

Wow...regards these mini collections. Just wow. I had no idea the number of variations. I have 4 of them...just 4. Red, Faux Wood, Horn and Stag 4" Inox types. Now I see, how deep this pool will be should I decide to jump in for real!

And not to shill, but I jumped on 3K tonight and they have minis back in stock!

Peace.

I never got in to the small knives, I do have one Terry gave me as a gift for my son. The way that kid tears stuff up he probably won't get it till he's in his 30's.

I have a little 7cm stag model I bought for my wife when we were in Florence, Italy in 1987.

I bought a 20cm stag for myself, with "B" stamped on the tang.
