First French automatic

Post by justacowboy »

Picked up this baby Bargeon on ebay. Seller thought it was defective because it would only open enough for the blade tip to peek.
It arrived today , two drops of oil later it was working perfectly.
Cool little knife that kicks like a mule.
3 inches closed - 5 5/8th O.A.L.
button o/c and razor sharp.
Will most likely do a bit of mangling on it - rescale it at the very least.

Nice catch, Don. I am always on the lookout for autos.
