Wow,
That's about as good as it gets. I see that you decided to pounce on the Presto. Great scores!

Re: American Switches
I am a big fan of Kabar switchblades also. Here is a couple that were hard for me to find. Jig bone and second cut stag.

Re: American Switches
Thanks. The jig bone examples, for some reason, are hard to find as are the yellow celluloid. Stag is the most common example found.

Re: American Switches
Great looking flylock! Is the blade tang stamped with an "S"?
