ITALIANS wonderfull but ...!

I really like that last one. Tell me more about this knife. Acttually it would be nice if you would tell us more about all the knives.
 
Well I’d like to tell a story , one day I was looking for a nice knife just a kitchen knife , while I was talking with the shop man a south Italian look man enter the shop and start doing many question speaking a very bad Italian language mixed with American words , the shop man didn’t understand a word an he said no no we don’t have, the Italian way when they don’t get way , but the man insist, I looked sat his eyes at that moment he seemed to be a crazy (in reality he is always crazy) he was looking for a certain knife ,so I asked him to calm down and to talk to me because any way the shop man doesn’t understand him . he looked at me and he said well ; I am an American from New York of Italian origin , two years ago I was in Rome and I’ve found a shop in a street like this one it was full of a beautiful knives and I would like to buy some of them, now I don’t find that "****enshop" , when he described the shop and the street I remembered that there was another knives shop but in a different direction and street in the zone , I asked him to ride behind me,by the scooter we went to that shop ,when he saw the shop he said yes yes thank you ,Sorry what’s your name !? , we entered that shop and he made like hundred questions in three minutes ‘I realized that he knew more than the salesman himself about many of that knives , since that day I began to collecting knives some times I trade with friends specially with my crazy New Yorker’s friend , which I consider as a master , he also comes from time to time to Italy .
the pictures you have seen are just a little part of my collection , most of my collection is Italian switch , I have some also in Damascus steel , soon when I buy a digital Camera I’ll send you some photo’s , hopping that in the future the photo’s would be quite better !
Ciao.

Great story, Maestro! I enjoyed your pictures and looked at the other pictures of that folding knife with the long damascus blade. Very interesting! Thanks for sharing. :)
