ROMO Italy picklock?

Post by CTAYLORMAN »

Looking for some info on this ROMO Italy knife. Guy I bought it from said its a picklock lockback. Goins dates it as early as 1917.

Goins says Romo was used back to 1917, he doesn't say your knife is possibly that old which it isn't. The knife is likely 1960s era and the turquoise inlay was done after the knife left the factory.

Not sure, my grandfather had an identical one but it was made in 1920. ::shrug::
