A.ROSA MANIAGO ITALY 24cm Italian DM Horn Lockback automatic knife

A.ROSA MANIAGO ITALY 24cm Italian DM Horn Lockback automatic knife made in Italy in the last couple of years by Alessandro Rosa Bian, a second generation Italian cutler who's been making knives for over 40 years. The knife measures 23.5cm (9 5/16 inches) open and 5 1/8 inches closed with brass liners and nickel silver bolsters, button, safety cap and pins. The flat swedge blade is 100% full with original finish and is etched FIRST PRODUCTION RUN below the spine. The ricasso is stamped D.M. with Dolphin pic and the reverse is A.ROSA MANIAGO-ITALY. The genuine horn scales are mostly Carmel & Cream and in excellent condition. The knife works great with blade tip deep and centered closed, strong snap and excellent lockup with just a hint of movement at the tip and NO rattle if shaken with blade open. To close you push on the backspring near the bottom/back of the knife to release blade to close. Safety works. Nearly new condition.
