Vintage Shur Snap switchblade with yellow synthetic scales. The knife was made by the Colonial Knife Co of Providence, RI in the late 1950s, likely 1956-58. It measures 4 inches closed and 7.25 inches open and has brass liners. The tang is stamped SHUR SNAP over Colonial over PROV USA, but the stamp is very faint as it often seen on these late 50s knives. We can tell it's a later 4th gen knife by the large domed button. The blade is full and shiny with most of the factory finish intact with lots of very faint scratches. The bright yellow colored synthetic scales are in nice condition with no shrinkage. Operates well with blade tip sitting deep when closed, good snap and good lockup with just a little up and down at the tip. Safety works. EX+ condition. 100% money back guarantee including return shipping if you're not happy with this knife.
