My most recent purchase - Genuine 9" Renzo Beltrame Italian Stiletto Switchblade. Beautiful knife. Features real Rosewood handle inserts, along with Silver Nickle Plated Bolsters. 5 inch handle, 4 inch bayonet style blade, 9 inches overall. Very Nice! Made in Maniago, Italy. I will be getting another stiletto made by Renzo Beltrame, but it will have real European Dark Horn inserts.
UPDATE: I've recieved it today, December 31st, 2008, It's a very great knife! Stay tuned for a video of that and my upcoming switchblade knife collection video.

Don't know who Renzo Beltrame is?
____________________________________
Renzo Beltrame is in the same family as Frank Beltrame. Frank has been around longer. Renzo's popular models usually have gold plated metals or titanuim plated metals used for the bolsters or other parts. Renzo has a bigger variety of tactical models than Frank. There's another family member in the Beltrame family that makes stilettos. Armando Beltrame. I noticed that he has alot of his stiletto models with plain blades, rather than bayonet and spear. Overall, Frank, Renzo and Armando Beltrame both make excellent knives at great prices!
