Factory Description:
Italo is a perfect mate for those who do not want to compromise. Fabrizio Silvestrelli drew a modern folding knife with advanced materials and technical solutions, with unique aesthetic, and plenty of character. A very distinctive drop opening plate. Offered in frame lock or liner-lock version. Italo opens so quickly thanks to flipper and ball bearings. Böhler M390 blade for extraordinary cutting qualities

i mistakenly ordered this thinking it was the liner lock fully carbon model and was initially disappointed by that but immediately fell for the absurdity of how cleanly machined and usable this knife is. The ergonomics are flawless and the texture of the scales make locating the knife in hand a breeze. The bearing makes flipping nearly balisong-easy and my only disappointment is that CK doesn’t carry the liner lock full carbon 5948 model so i have to find it elsewhere.
