Spanish Navajas?

[Kyui Su Kim]

I have seen all types of the Spanish Navajas but I have no idea who makes a good one. I tried to look for one at our local Indy gun show but nobody had one(except for a guy with a imitation lock one). My question is if anyone knows where I can get a "genuine" one or one of good quality?

Here’s a couple of sites to look at. I can’t vouch for either company, but the knives look good.

Thanks for the links.

I have seen CutlerytoGo's stuff but am still iffy on the quality of the companys. Anjular seems to be reliable?

If you live in the States, www.cutlerytogo.com is a good source for Spanish and other European knives. Some of their items are overpriced in my opinion, however, they ship fast and they're nice folks to deal with.

If you're looking for big ratcheting navajas, check out Exposito. I find some of their models a bit nicer than Andújar's.

Keep in mind that most Spanish knives do not have the meticulous fit and finish of modern folders from Spyderco, CRKT, Benchmade, SOG and the like. You will find various cosmetic blemishes the handles and other imperfections, but most of the knives are certainly usable.

Thanks Cosmic

Figured that I would have to expect the minor imperfections in the knives, nothing like US made eh?
