This site is all about my passion for collecting various forms of "Automatic" cutlery and knives.
Here you'll find some information about my collectible knives and very special pieces, and I will also
attempt too share some of the reasons that I became a collector of these artistic spring steel masterpieces, and
will share some photos of items I've been fortunate enough to have acquired along my path. Some of the items
may be available for you to buy or trade for pieces within your own Automatica collection.
If you are looking
for something in particular, by all means, please feel free to ask. Also, let me know if you have items you may want to
sell or trade........I am always up to a little horse tradin'!
I will also be adding some very important links to some of the very best websites available, right
now to help with all your collectable Italian and American crafted cutlery needs. Please take a minute to check them
all out......and I can guarantee you that you will not be disappointed.......
I'll be updating this site frequently
as I add to my collection, so check back often! As well as asking the support of the collecting community as a whole to become
involved in taking the appropriate steps needed towards abolishing and ammending some long outdated, and rediculously ancient
regulations and laws governing our group hobby! This has to change friends. With numbers comes strength....and now with the
sudden and surprizing cancellation of all "Automatic" or Spring Steel knives being auctioned or listed on eBay, it is time
for all the new collectors, who were able to wet their appetite and begin their collecting, as well as the seasoned, long
time collectors to register, and frequent the sites linked to this site.........
Folks, if we could let's please focus on a realistic means of making some much needed change
within our government...I know that if enough folks make a ruckus......something good should, and most likely will come
from it, as a result of our group effort as a whole unfaultering unit with voices that demand to be heard.........please
help spread the word.....Thank you for looking!

Answer to last week's question:
Do you mean to tell me that the laws are still obsolete, and not a darned thing has happened
yet as far as making some positive changes? Is 1958 mentality is still reigning supreme? Are you telling me that our
government "Big Brother" is still floundering in the Stone Age when it comes to laws and regulations concerning our hobby
of choice? Kind folks, and friends......Can you honestly rembember or recall an incident involving a spring-steel or automatic
knife was used in the course of a serious or deadly crime. Outside of military use, of course.....it just does not happen
from what I have seen, no matter what the motion picture industry and the aging politicians who still try
and tell you otherwise. At least I have not heard of any incidents poppin' up on the local news....unlike gang and
gun violence. These laws are extremely outdated, and need to be ammended as soon as possible. Guns and gangs are the weapons
used and individuals that choose to live that lifestyle, and they are the ones who are commiting all the crimes.
Why is it that the..AMERICAN adult, who responsibly chooses to collect these types of knives, cannot have the freedom to do
so openly and without malice, and unjust persacution and prosecution within our society for doing so? Do we still live
in America folks......I like to still at least hope so, but it seems to be failing quite rapidly? With the uninformed, or
misinformed government officials, along with corporate america, pulling all of the punches, it often times makes
me really wonder. Can and will things ever change? We can only hope and do our part to help in the fight for right. Only
with voices and numbers united comes power....so please everyone, do whatever you can for yourself and future generations, should
you choose too collect and trade, and for the betterment of the entire collecting community as a whole! Enough,
is enough already..............
Lets all take a stand, and work towards much needed change!!!!
