Nice Russian Prison Knife (RPK) Switchblade, Small Fancy Dagger, Swivel Bolster Closing, Unused. Very unique piece that uses a leaf spring opening system and the backside bolster as the blade unlocking mechanism. The blade tip is held closed by a wire that moves up and down with the button. 

I've seen several RPK from Ukraine with similar opening systems. This one has a nice dagger shape engraved blade with S shaped engraved bolsters. Nice file work along the spine and a jewel looking insert in the button. It has a hole at the bottom of the spine that looks threaded on the inside. Maybe at one time it had a glass breaker or a lanyard attachment. I don't know for sure and it did not come with anything else. 

I HAVE A VIDEO SHOWING CONDITION AVAILABLE BY TEXT @ (3 ZERO 3) - 5 FOUR 9 - 1 4 1 9.  

- The knife is unused. There are light scratches and scuffs on the blade and handle. I don't see any other condition issues. See the pictures as they represent the condition accurately. 

- Functions great and fires strong. Nice lockup when open and the backside bolster swivels to unlock the blade. 

- Approximately 6 inch total length with 2.5 inch blade. 

- Knife only. 

CASH OFFERS ALWAYS CONSIDERED 

SHIPPING: I normally ship using USPS Ground Advantage in a box. I sometimes use USPS Priority for heavier or expensive knives. On orders over $400 I ship with signature required at delivery. NO INTERNATIONAL SHIPPING without contacting me first please!

WANT LIST: I do my best to maintain an inventory of interesting, unique and hard to find knives. I'm always looking for single pieces and collections. My current switchblade focus includes Miniature & Keychain, Vintage Imports from Spain, France & Japan, RPK's, Rizzuto's, older Microtechs and some other 90's-2000's American Switchblades and I'm starting to get into pre-ban American switchblades. I also like interesting miniature knives and arms, 1980's Import Balisongs and older Great Eastern Cutlery folders. 

ABOUT: I'm an US Army Veteran that became a big pocket knife user while I was on active duty in Panama. Back then my goto was always a Spyderco since I grew up in Colorado. In 2010 I started collecting knives and in 2021 I decided to go all in and became a dealer. I love the gig however it's a lot of work for a one man show. I spend my days buying, selling and sometimes trading knives. I also travel to knife and gun shows regularly, walking up and down aisle's looking for cool stuff to offer to my customers and the online world. 

I've met a lot of great people along my dealer journey. I've also realised there's a lot of sharks out there in the knife world. The honest ones are fine, it's the dishonest ones that suck. I've been ripped of and scammed many more times as a dealer than I ever was as a collector. I guess it's a volume deal. I'm buying and selling way more knives than I ever did as a collector. 

In my listings I always do my best to give accurate information about the knives I'm selling including what it is and the condition. I take lots of pictures showing as much of the knives as possible and offer video's for all the switchblades and some of the other knives I list. I research sale prices and other available information on all my knives. I also have a great network of other dealers and collectors to get information and opinions from. All that said, I still make mistakes so please let me know if something I say is innacurate or misleading.
