			Hi,  in my opinion this knife is either northern Italian or Austrian. The knife looks much like a Trattenbacher "Taschenfeitl" (pocket knife). Greetings, Helge |

			Hello CB, Does the blade lock open? Also, is the pin (visible through the bolster) a pivot pin for the blade, or does it simply secure the bolster in place? ETA: While I can in no way qualify this observation, to my eye it almost ("almost" being the operative word  ) has a Sinhalese 'feel' to it...   |
