Frank Beltrame 11" Buffalo Horn Swivel Bolster Stiletto 

The Frank Beltrame 11" Buffalo Horn Swivel Bolster Stiletto is a classic, Italian-made automatic switchblade. Handcrafted in Maniago, Italy, by master craftsman Frank Beltrame, this traditional pocket knife blends historic design elements with reliable automatic deployment. 
 
 Design Features
  • Swivel Bolster Mechanism: This is a classic closing system. Once the blade fires open and locks, you pivot or tilt the top bolster forward to release the lock tab and safely fold the blade back into the handle.
  • Natural Buffalo Horn Scales: The handle features genuine water buffalo horn. Because horn is a natural organic material, every knife is uniquely patterned—typically presenting a deep black base polished to a high sheen, often accented with natural streaks of white or translucent brown.
  • Automatic Firing: The knife operates via a traditional push-button firing mechanism powered by a leaf spring, snapping the blade out from the side with impressive speed and authority.
  • Sliding Safety Switch: A small, textured safety slider sits on the handle to lock the push-button mechanism, preventing accidental deployment while carrying.
  • Traditional Internals: Constructed with durable solid brass liners, brass pins, and polished stainless steel or nickel silver bolsters at both ends.
