Vintage White Mexican Souvenir Automatic Knife









Vintage souvenir automatic knife. Sold in Mexico but made in Japan in the 70's, I don't know the original manufacturer. The mechanism is in tact, when you press down on the lever the blade pops out decently and locks in place, with one caveat, you need to press down on the lever pretty hard to get it to fully extend. If you press lightly, the blade only extends half way. Also keep in mind it's a cheaply made knife and it's very loose, so the blade wobbles around.
The handles are in tact though with some dings and scratches from time and use, and it makes for an interesting looking and functional throw back knife.
This knife comes from my grandfather's collection that I recently inherited. I don't know how he came by this knife other than he was an outdoorsman, and liked to visit local flea markets. That's my only knowledge of it, as I am not a professional kinfe dealer by any means.
I've made a video showing it off on youtube here: https://youtu.be/2qLz2myBz_8

If not satisfied I'll accept returns minus shipping costs in the same condition sent out.
The price is firm, I really would rather not entertain offers, I apologize!
I'll be shipping by UPS ground.
Thank you for looking!
