Mini Switchblades

Post by prober996 »

I found a box with these mini switchblades among my late father's possessions. I believe that he brought most of these home from vacations to Italy. The longest one is approx 4 1/2" and the short ones are approx 2 3/4".

Is there anything interesting here? I'd be happy to take close-up photos of individual knives if that helps. Thanks in advance for any info!

They are all very nice, and probably worth more than you think.

If they were your dad's I wouldn't part with them. My dad died in 1978 and all I got was his slide rule,glasses and a case pocket knife. Garbage to anybody else,priceless to me.

Well said. Someday you may wish you had kept these mementos. It’s also said,” ya cant keep everything”. Choose wisely.
