Beltrame Classic Brazilian Horn Bayonet 23/09B Switchblade Knife
Detailed product description
The Beltrame Classic Brazilian Horn Bayonet 23/09B switchblade knife is an iconic Italian stiletto model that combines traditional design, authentic materials, and a characteristic automatic mechanism in its most classic form.
This model draws on historic knives from the Maniago region, which is considered the center of Italian stiletto knife production. It preserves the original construction, style, and mechanics, making it a true piece of knifemaking tradition.
The dominant feature is the Bayonet blade, which is typical of stilettos thanks to its slim profile, central ridge, and elegant symmetry. This shape is not primarily designed for work use, but for aesthetics, quick penetration, and an iconic appearance.
As soon as you take the knife in hand, its classic construction immediately stands out. This is not a knife about modern materials and tactical performance, but about style, history, and mechanical character.
The blade is made of stainless steel, offering sufficient sharpness for everyday use while remaining easy to maintain, in keeping with the traditional concept of this type of knife.
The automatic mechanism is a classic side-opening button-operated system. Opening is fast, mechanically distinctive, and accompanied by the characteristic "click" typical of Italian stilettos.
Metal bolsters and traditional construction elements complete the overall retro look and emphasize its authenticity without modern interventions.
Beltrame Classic is a knife built on tradition, aesthetics, and collector value — not technical innovation.
Knife type Automatic (side-opening stiletto)
