Those are beautiful. Lovely, creamy scales.

Did you get them From Walt at Latama.net?

Thanks for the show.

Hello Coop,
I didn't get either one from Walt's Latama.net site. The 11" and the 9" I got from an authorized seller. The 11" was not part of the original limited edition run, but
from the second run. The 9" is part of the Limited Edition Run it is numbered and it has the "W" between the Cat's front paws. Here are two photos of the 11"; the
photos are of the back and front tang stamp. Let me know if you would like any additional information.

Thank you, Coop, for taking the time to take a look at my knives and for writing,
John

I understand your excitement. These knives are historical and modern at the same time. They're addicting.

Well done!

Hi Coop,
These knives are built to last. Frank Beltrame is one of Italy's finest craftsmen. I love his work. If you collect Italian stilettos you should try to get one.
I just got a Limited Edition Dasmascas swing guard. I'll post a few photos in the gallery.
I'd like to see some of your favorite knives post one or two when you have a chance.
Your friend,
John
