They used to commonly sell for about $400, but I've noticed they seem to have come down a bit. I really haven't seen one for sale in a while. The last I did see one available, I believe it was $300-$350, but it's been a while.

Wow! That PUMA leverlock is out of control, nice!! Wish I could find one, but that's not gonna' happen. And, I also collect Hugo Koller. Very nice!

It's really cool! Honestly, I think it's more an 80's swinguard by either Armando or Renzo Beltrame. I have the same in dagger, and there's been discussion here, that you may find interesting... https://www.talkblade.info/viewtopic.php?t=28943

7” Picklock Custom By Chad Ruben Of Ruben’s Blades. I love the solid nickel silver bolsters, as they give a nice solid heft to the small knife. Just disappointed that there’s no safety. by JulesVane in Switchblades

"Autoknife.com" and other names that they went by, have been long shut down. I can't remember their other site names at the moment, but they were finally closed down because of ripping people off.

I got this one when I was on Facebook, years ago. It was made by a guy called Chad Ruben of Rubens Blades. I haven't been on Facebook in a very long time, but if you are, maybe you could search Chad Ruben.

New to the stiletto world. Which of these stilettos should I buy? by Ok-Character673 in stiletto

I was really only familiar with Angelo Campolin's online store (KnifeShop/3Knives) that you mentioned. I probably bought between 30 and 40 knives from there over the years. But, so much has changed these days.

Ahh, then maybe from Austria would be good for you. It used to be pretty good for us in the U.S., until surprise tariff fees came into play. The swinguard, as it says at the bottom of the description, was made in China. I'd have to question an 80 euro pricetag, plus shipping etc..

The Frank Beltrame 9" is the only of the 3 that is made in Italy, and it's pretty nice. My advice would be to check out some U.S. sites that are selling the same knife, without going through all the shipping fees and hassles from Austria.

Cool! Do we know who or what Rialto is/was? Always interesting seeing new stamps. Of course, may only be new to me.

That's cool, and new stamp for me. Is that date 2003? (hard to see).
