IL Grande Italian Milano Stiletto Rosewood Kriss Automatic Knife

Befitting the Italian title of The Grand or The Great, this deluxe 9.5 inch version of the Italian Milano Stiletto has a piercing pin point tip and razor-sharp edge. The sharp silver kriss-style blade on this addition to the legendary stiletto line cuts to the core. Arguably the most difficult blade profile to make and derived from Indonesian cultural customs, the merit and value of a Kriss blade is determined largely by the number of undulations. A second key factor is the median ridge. It should flow smoothly and follow the undulations of the edges perfectly just as this one does. Many Kriss blades have 13 undulations, in Indonesian culture, 13 is seen as a lucky or even magical number. The Rosewood handle has a smooth look that does not diminish its usefulness housing a swift automatic switch that makes rapid deployment a breeze and a handy safety mechanism to prevent accidental deployment. 2.9 mm thick and 4 inches long, the piercing bayonet-style blade extends its pin-point tip out to a 9.5 inch overall length. Shiny brass rivets and a gold-plated lining adorn the solid and well-constructed ABS handle. Includes a FREE black nylon sheath with sturdy belt loop.
