Hi guys,

I recently bought a beaufiful knife that it is perfectly functional. Pictures attached

Do you think it is the real deal ?

It looks very well build and the spring is incredibly powerfull. When I press the swastica button it opens in a fraction of second.

Regards

Alex

I know things are bad in NY, but it's not like that all over.
If you ever throwing things like this away, email me.
4th for sure, but kind of a neat one.

The eagle looks like that one on Gaz's ring ?

On the knife, I think the swaz on the button is cool

This Fuhrerfabrik Krupp switchblade was specially made for an SS unit that infiltrated NYC in the 1950's, The Jets used them in their big fight with The Sharks. Goes to show what you guys know :)

Ed,, I meant throw away 'after use' wink whistle I can't imagine the amount of knives and guns in the Hudson river!

Yes someone put some time in that one. One of the emblems [helmeted soldier] might be from a WW2 Estonian badge.
