Vintage Italian 23cm Humpback stiletto switchblade knife. I believe this knife was made in the 1960s and these are referred to as Humpbacks due to the hump/bump on the back spring that you press to close the blade. The knife measures 23cm (9 inches) open with brass liners and German silver bolsters, button and safety cap. The blade is 100% full with all of the factory finish and is marked ROSTFREI on the front and PATENT on the rear of the tang. The horn scales are black with green streak in the front and tan streaks in the rear scale and in very good condition. The knife works great with the blade tip seating deep and centered, nice smooth snap and tight lockup! It is coil spring fired with no kickback. Safety works. Really beautiful vintage Italian humpback switchblade.
