Vintage small 1960s stilettos

[BestVintageKnives]

Been grabbing these more and more lately.

The first 2 are picklocks. The rest are rotating bolster stilettos. So many little differences I wonder who made all of these?

Seems odd. The stories go Mauro Mario was making 100,000 switchblades every year. That’s like 600,000 in the 1950s alone. Where are those knives? And who made them all? Was Oreste making 1000 a month and in each size? 3000 a month for 6-8 years? Or were there ten guys making the smaller sizes? Seems like make people had the tooling.

That’s my fake math but regardless it doesn’t seem to add up to me.

There are more Latamas than any other company and they they only reached those numbers for a few months once time.
