Kissing Crane Switchblade (Conversion from Manual to Auto)    with Rosewood handles and Brass Hardware

Features Rosewood Handles with a "Kissing Crane" company shield (push button) inlay. 6 3/4" Mirror Polished, etched, 440 Stainless Clip Point Blade. Blade is etched "STILETTO GERMANY KISSING CRANE". Brass Lined with Brass Bolsters. Tang is marked with the Kissing Crane name & logo. Backside of the tang is marked "KC 45 ROSTFREI". Overall length is 14 3/4". Measures 8" closed.

Lockback design with excellent lockup. This is a conversion from manual opening to automatic operation, which is easier said than done. It takes some time to do the conversions which is the reason you see so few out there. Not quite as heavy as the 15" Campolin models. This weighs 10.2 oz vs 12.4 +/- for the Campolins. No safety. 

Handcrafted in Italy for Kissing Crane by "FALCON" in Maniago ,Italy. Kissing Crane is no longer in business.( Falcon of Italy is also out of business).(Kissing Crane / Klaas no longer have a factory in Solingen, Germany, but someone purchased the name brand and logo and some pocket knives with the KC name pop up on occasion). 

 Includes an AIK XL Custom Zippered pouch. Excellent overall. Some "swish" marks on the blade at the tang (from opening and closing). Worth getting for your collection as you find very few KC conversions.
