Need help identifying switchblade mfg.
A co-worker has a switchblade that was purchased around 1990.
The only marks on it are on the blade. It is a leaping cat of some sort under a parachute with 3 lightning bolts under the front of the cat. Any idea who made it and what it might be worth? It's about 8" long when open and looks like the handle is machined aluminum. Thanks |

Sound's like a Dalton type of auto. They have a web site where you could probably identify it. www.daltonknives.com

That sure sounds like a Dalton Logo but a picture would sure help since Dalton seems to make a new limited production model every month.

Has there been much change in prices? If prices are up, would you guess-timate 10%, 20%, etc? I am just starting collecting, and I don't want to be taken advantage of.
Thanks! |
