I'm interested in other automatics such as Microtech and Dalton. Custom switchblades and other production switchblades will also be considered. The best way to reach me is by PM.
Paul Panak (Burn Knives) 11 inch Ivory Italian Picklock Stiletto
- Beautiful pre-ban Elephant Ivory Handle (see up close pictures below)
- 154cm blade steel which is an upgrade from his normal 440c
- Solid Nickel Silver bolsters
- Stainless steel liners
- Blade, leaf spring and back spring are 3/16 inch thick
- Knife at handles is about 3/4 inch thick
- All the metal is mirror polished
I'm not a professional photographer (obviously right) but I included a lot of pictures. I tried to capture the grain and texture of the ivory handle. It is amazing stuff. I've not owned any ivory before so it was a learning experience for me to look at and admire.
Of course never carried or used. I am the second owner. One other note, Paul is currently not making side openers. His focus is on Out the Front automatics. He updates his website periodically about his progress. I had another collector contact me who said the delay could be up to 2 years. In other words if you want a Burn knife secondary market is gonna be it for side openers.
