Gravity Knives
Does anyone else like gravity knives? Here is my small collection of them. I would like to see other styles of them if anyone would like to post what they have

Re: Gravity Knives
I don't own any P80, but I've always thought they are pretty cool knives!
If you'd like to view at least 1 more model that's different from what you posted you can go to the store section and click-on "Automatic knives" in the column on your left and scroll until you see a black stiletto described as a "gravity" knife. Fairly high priced though! It's actually #69996 if you simply search from the top of this page. That's a nice group you posted!

Re: Gravity Knives
My 3.
Top is an SMF, Solingen, probably made in the 1930's. The SMF stands for German knife making company words, would need to look it up. Could have been a theater re-profile, the blade should look like the next knife.
Middle is a Paul Weyersberg, Solingen, also made in the 1930's. When I got it, the trigger spring was broken and both the trigger and spring piece were AWOL. Had an online source replace the trigger and spring, works perfectly.
Bottom is an Eagle and way newer, maybe 1970's. Definitely not heavy duty like the other two. Still gives that signature "thunk" when opening.

Re: Gravity Knives
Thought I would show the 2 I picked up Both are Paul Weyersberg Solingen Germany
One is the 1st model & the second is the take apart one with the square pin next to the bolster
They both have #'s at the trigger and a mark at the spike. Please add to this I would like to know more

Re: Gravity Knives
My accumulation. The small ones are all Eagle Pencil co. The large metal handled one is an Anton Wingen Othello;the olive drab is modern German military issue; the yellow one is unmarked as is the smaller metal one.
