Hello All, I use, and started collecting Lone Wolf folders about 2 years ago. I have an assortment of there manual, D/A, and Paul folders. All in all about 20 total. Does anyone know of a manufacturer that makes a folder that best resemble's the look and quality of Original Lone Wolf folders?? After Benchmade bought out Lone Wolf, they have made some similar knives, ex.(Scorch D/A), and is using the Paul locking mechanism in some offerings. But I am looking for another company that makes something with the same look and feel of Lone Wolf.. Any opinions?? Thanks
 
Butch Valloton has D/a and Valloton and Mat Diskin have a dual action AUS8 knife. But from all the knives I know, You really cant get close to a lone wolf. Sorry. D/a is making a good appearance in the market but No one does it like Lone Wolf did
 
The closest thing you can get to the original Lone Wolf knives is to go through Benchmade. That is the only company that makes knives with the look and feel, think about it.
 
I appreciate the recommendation. I checked his site and he has some beautiful knives. I sent an email, hopefully I'll hear soon. I agree, for me anyway's, Lone wolf made some great knives. You don't see many company's using Palmwood, or marbled cocobolo, etc..for there handles, unless you are buying from a custom maker. Hopefully Benchmade will follow with the same style, look and feel of the Original Lone Wolf D/A folders.

The Lone Wolf knives made in Italy were being produced by Fantoni.

Fantoni is still making some very nice knives. I picked up a Harsey Beretta BH Tactical made by Fantoni and it looks very similar the LW Harsey knives.
