[CONTINI-58]

Handmade Picklock Switchblade with Buffalo Horn by Antonio Contini (Sardinia, Italy) with Brass Bolsters

Handmade by Sardinian maker Antonio Contini Measures 11 1/8" overall open with a 5 1/8" satin finished blade that features N690 Stainless Steel. Blade is marked "A CONTINI" on the tang. 

Select Buffalo Horn Handles with lots of color accented with Red Liners.. Brass bolsters  Picklock release;  (means you must take your thumb and index finger and pull back where the blade locks open to unlock the blade). Measures 6" closed. Weighs 9.8oz.

 Operates by pressing on the Diamond Shaped button. Features positive superfast automatic action via leaf spring. Unlike switchblades of Maniago, Sardinian knives from Sardinia do not have a safety, this is by design, as the Sardinian clan makes switchblades for self defense and believe a safety would slow the deployment. Features very fast auto action. Blade has some very slight up and down blade movement when open.

 This piece is new/mint and was purchased by special order direct from the maker.. Rare chance to own a custom handmade switchblade from Sardinia, Italy without the tariffs . Includes a custom zippered storage pouch.
