Vintage INOX PATENT 18cm Italian switchblade knife. This style is often stamped Ackermannchen and I don't know of any other name for the style. The knife measures just under 18cm (just over 7 inches) open with brass liners and pins and nickel silver plated button and safety. The flat grind swedge blade appears to be full and shiny with some light scratches. The black synthetic scales are in good condition with no cracks, but a little warped area by the backspring release and some handling marks/light scratches. The knife works great with the blade tip below liners closed, strong snap and good lockup open. This is a backspring release knife so you press on a grooved tab on the exposed backspring in the wrap around handles to release blade to close. Nice old Italian INOX PATENT automatic knife. Safety does not work properly. VG+ condition.
