All are very cool K.K., but I really like the knife at the top, and the trapdoor at the bottom! Beautiful and becoming rare! Thanks for showing us! ::handshake:: 8)

The one on top is quite rare although very cheaply made it still works good.I try not to spend over 100.00 that's part of the fun finding them cheap. I have a Daughter at college $$ ****Final year**** so I might bump that figure to 110.00 LOL The Italian at bottom I got a nice deal at $350.00 most I ever paid for a knife,... for me to keep anyhow...

Yah, the knife at the top is one that's rarely seen, and the trapdoor for $350., I'd say you got a great deal on it considering there's a few of them in AAPK stores right now listed at US$400. and up from there to as much as US$1,100. for an all-metal model. I just love automatic knives! 8)

Hi yes I guess there was both on the Bonsa's the springs are not super powerful so holding them down apparently was what was supposed to happen sort of a "Gravity assisted" These two are like new
