View attachment 765900 View attachment 765901 Not sure if this qualifies as a traditional knife. Got it in a gun shop a couple of years ago. Is this an old style or new? Anyway, carried it some today.

I'm not sure either, but @T. Erdelyi posted one similar recently. Great looking engraving on yours!

Neat little knife. Here's some info copied and pasted from KnifeCenter.com. Since they are a paid dealer member I can mention them.

KB11363: Bascula Medium Folder
Beretta Knives

The Beretta Bascula is a sharp looking Gentleman's Knife. The hand engraved handles mimic the side plates of Beretta's famous SO5 over-and-under shotgun, which is one of the finest competition shotguns ever made. With the capable edge of the 440C stainless steel, it's not only ornamental, but also functional. These would make great gifts for not only family and friends, but also for groomsmen.


Specifications

• Blade Length: 3"
• Blade Steel: 440C Stainless Steel
• Overall Length: 7"
• Blade Finish: Satin
• Handle Material: Engraved Stainless Steel
• Sheath Material: Leather
• Made in Taiwan

Thanks r8shell. I think I found the one you speak of DSC_1706 | BladeForums.com. Handle shape looks very similar. With mine, the handle opens around the blade. Once the handle is opened fully, the blade is locked in the open position.




Thanks for the reply r8shell.

Thanks for the reply Peregrin. Googled it and saw some images. That's definitely the one. Mine must be a baby version of it. Looks like about 5 1/2 total with 2 1/2 blade. Thanks for taking the time to reply.

Being the weekend, and not likely that I'll be cutting a lot of cardboard, I'm going with something more elegant than my workaday stockmen.

Can never stay away from the soddies:

I really like those Blue Soddies.

I'll be back.

Where did you go? We miss you when your chair is empty.

Very cool knife. I like it.

I tried to get these two in the same picture, but it didn't work out.

 

[Peregrin]

Nice knives today! Have a great weekend!
Does a little bacon grease on the pivot count as "Oil the Joints"?

The handle scales are (or are designed to mimic) side plates from a break-action shotgun receiver, including the engraved scrollwork and hinge pin. I have a couple Berettas and recognized them immediately. Old or new, I don't know, but very unique and very nice!

Thanks Stuart. Don't have a Beretta, but may snap a few photos next to some other shotgun scales. I will if it's a good looking picture for the gun/knife thread.

Beautiful Ettrick! That ebony is something else.

Smashing Peach Pruner mate, that's some nice ebony

Distinguished knife, FBC! A dilemma for me: what is that pattern called? Ettrick? Pruner?

Thanks, guys. Jack is right about this one, it is a pruner.

HMS Victory by any chance Donn? Whatever, a nice shot and a useful workmanlike choice.

Spot on Will! Cheers! Only had my phone camera. I think that was the mid-gun deck port side looking aft.
BTW all of those cannons are fibre glass...
