Help with maker please
I have searched and searched and cant seem to find any info on a knife that was given to me many years ago. Any info would be appreciated very satistified much.
Re: Help with maker please
Hi, I believe these are a fairly low-end import knife with no particular pedigree. My wife brought me one back from Bratislava that she got at a souvenir shop. Don't get me wrong, it was probably the nicest thing she ever did for me, and it was a really solid little auto. God knows how she managed to get it out of Bratislava and into Newark International Airport without Interpol, Scotland Yard, The Canadian Mounted Police, and The Bratislavan National Guard going into intergalactic alert mode-- but I got the pictures to prove she did. Anyway, I wasn't digging the handles much So I made some dark black resin handles for it. Came out pretty nice. I EDC'd it for a while. Then one day I decided to see how it worked and how close it was in it's design to the Queen #25 Jet. So i took it apart and never got around to putting it back together. I'm just thankful that at least I got a picture of it on a plate surrounded by sea glass before I sawed the tang off...

I can 100 percent buy that it is some sort of cheaper made souvenir, the handle def screams it. i am just used to seeing made in China or Tawain ect....and i vaguely remember a story came with it from the huh that gave it to me. The fact that i couldn't find any info whatsoever on the web just made me have to try anf find some sort of info...thanks for the info. I have refently found myself fi ally digging into my many years of collecting and aquring and have been surprised by a few that i forgot i had and a couple rhat i didnt even realize what i had.

Are the bolsters solid or shell?

Robo, you are amazing ! I don't even know where Bratislavia is. If there was a "Trivial Pursuit" for knife factoids you would likely be the champion.
