Vintage 1980’s Era Kissing Crane KC45 Large Manual Open/Close Lockback Stiletto For Sale

I am selling a really nice, vintage, 1980’s Era Kissing Crane KC45 Large Manual Open/Close Lockback Stiletto Knife. This was a recent estate sale find. This is a rock solid, quality, manual opening, manual closing, lockback knife. This is a perfectly legal knife. It is NOT an illegal or restricted item. This KC45 is the largest model of Kissing Crane Stiletto knives that was made and measures approximately 14.75” overall when open. It measures approximately 8” when closed. The blade (cutting edge) is 6”. The tang is 0.75”. It weighs approximately 10.5oz. It has a beautiful wood handle with brass hardware and a stainless steel blade. It has a smooth, easy, push button to close. Has a good, sturdy, smooth, snap both opening & closing. It’s rock solid, with no “play” or “wiggle” when open. It’s a solid, quality, knife. These particular KC45 knives have an interesting history. Although branded as “Kissing Crane” and labeled “Germany” these vintage, oversized, KC-45’s were actually manufactured under contract by famed Stiletto maker AKC in Manaigo, Italy for Robert Klass who originally owned the Kissing Crane brand. It is in good, used, condition for it’s age. The blade does have some light scratches that could probably be removed. The brass has a vintage patina and some slight discoloration that will probably clean up also if you so choose. I am selling it “as is”, as I found it.
