Hi everyone, Does anyone know anything about this jacknife? I got it at an estate sale and it's old and well used. I love it but can't find much about it online. The blade has, Made in Italy, stamped on it and the handle has Cal. 12 stamped on one side and Cal. 16 on the other.
Thanks!
Looks like someone went crazy with a bench grinder trying to clean it up and removed the remainder of the markings. Like cleaning an old coin ....don't do it.
Yes, the blade has been ground down considerably. I'm just trying to find out some info about the manufacturer to learn a bit more about it and possibly how old it is.
Your missing something...someone ground off the shotgun shell extractors..

Wow....that’s too bad about the alteration.
