My Neighbors Stiletto

Post by jf1969 »

My neighbor has this Stiletto, as far as I can find it's an M.Italy Inox Oval that has an overall length of 5-3/8" or 14cm.

I'm trying to get an idea of age, value, etc. He's 78 and doesn't have a good memory. I can't seem to find any comparable in this size.

Thank you.

78 and a poor memory? I can relate to that.

Looks to be a 1950s knife and is probably worth about 150. / 200 to the right person maybe a tad more

used to seeing a larger variation of that stamp on later transitional knives, its definitely a neat knife.

wow nice find ::tu:: you have a 1950's maybe early 60's picklock made in maniago Italy , you dont see this size very often so probably is kinda rare , its made with buffalo horn handles brass liners and pins nickel/silver bolsters and button and safety , this has a stainless steel blade by marking on blade (inox) which translates to (stainless), it was made by the Mauro Mario factory which Angelo campolin Sr ran and operated in 1950's/1960's, im going to say its worth upwards of 300.00 as it is a kinda rare stamp and of odd size .
